would 24# injectors run well with a supercharger or would you have to go all out with the 42#ers

interesitng, ive seen Crane rocker arms listed as 1.72s, but apparently they only sell 1.7 and summit. I always thought those 2 were interchangable, awkward for me lol So i guess my stock crane cobra rockers are 1.7 instead of 1.72 eh?

I've always read that extruded aluminum rockers are stronger than die cast. Comp, Scorpion, Crane, FRPP are all good ones. Scorpion will probably be a little cheaper price wise....
