Adding the 1.7's and dyno runs with the V6 show's
anywhere from a 15 to 18 RWHP gain.

Installing the 1.7's will help you benifit more
from the bigger TB

More power across the entire rpm range starting
at 1800 on up its very noticeable, also they
show better gas milage.

As I said the low end loss with a V8 body is not
that noticeable on most trucks and the gains are
worth the tiny loss

Yes get ahold of sam he is running a group buy on
the crower 1.7's They have roller tips and pivit.
less fricton and heat, ads about 4 degrees
duration and about .050 lift.

Its just like changing the cam but with a lot less
work

All you need to do is remove the old rockers and
install a stud and washer in the exsisting holes
and put the rockes on.

Stock springs and push rods work just fine, the
only thing you need to do is knock the baffles
back some in the valve covers to clear the new
studs

Its a great bolt on mod for adding power only
takes 2 to 3 hours to install them well worth
the money and time it takes
