Getting ready to order the Crower 1.7 roller rockers. Would a rocker kit be better to install than just rockers? Just a street machine, no racer. I just want to make the V6 a little bit better.

I installed mine last weekend too. The only problem I have is keeping my foot off the gas. They are great. I went with the regular ones since I won't be seeing 5500 RPM a lot if at all.

Standard kit is good up to 5500 rpm... Installation is pretty straight forward.

(They're in stock!)

I have heard lots of people state that there rockers need adjustment or start knocking all the time. What's the deal? How reliable are rockers?

Yes the rockers need adjustment... When you put them on! They're an adjustable rocker, not a slap on part like the stock rockers.

They do make more noise than a friction style rocker.

Much more reliable than a high rev with a non-roller rocker. The Crower's are the highest quality available-- Plus now you can order with needle bearing tips!!!

I've sold quite a bit of these, plus use them myself (45k+ miles and going).
