Message:
I am getting ready for the strips to open and am putting the last finishing touches on my 2001 R/T. I am getting ready to bye some roller rockers and was wanting a little help. What are the best and what do you all need. I have heard that the Cower Rockers are the best, is that true. Does anyone know what how much they are? I was also wondering if you need to buy anything else when you get them, like a differn't size push rods or any thing.
One last thing. I am wanting to buy an extra large turtle like everyone has been talking about. Just wondering where i could get one and how much also. Thanks for all the help.

I chose the Harland Sharp non-adjustable aluminum 1.7 roller rockers. Super easy install, much much more easier than Crower. $298 shipped to my door from SouthEastRT.com, they were specifically designed with our trucks in mind.

I would watchout for the Harland Sharp ones... if you are using a stock cam they are fine, but if you change the cam you have to get a kit that will make them adjustable... honestly the crower stainless 1.7 are worth the price... you can get some aluminum ones from comp cams that have a more reasonable price... no offense to John M. on his rocker design.

If you have or are removing your rev limiter you might want to look into the High Rev kit (longer push rods & guide plates)

CROWER INFO


as Frankie posted Sam at SoCA usually has the best prices and is great if you have any questions.
