Default Summit gave me wrong rockers....

So i told the guy 1.6 energizer rockers, and i'm on the way home and i look at my **** and they're 1.7's. I dont really wanna make another trip back there.

So heres my question.......

What do i need to check to see if these 1.7's will be fine ? And how would i go about checking it. Thanks

God damn dude!
Go buy the Crane stud conversion kit and Comp roller tip non rail 1.6 rockers and be done with it.
You seem to to be getting no where fast. Or is there something wierd about the 'P' heads that they won't recieve rocker arms?

you will be ok with a stock cam.

the cobra has these in them.


check and make sure they clear valve covers, if the y, unplug the ignition coil when your done and crank over to hear if they hit the valve covers

Its not a stock cam, its the trickflow stage1. I'M NOT GETTING ANYWHERE FAST BECAUSE I WANT TO GET THIS DONE RIGHT, AND I'M VERY UNSURE ABOUT SOME THINGS, AND I WOULD HAVE IT DONE IF SUMMIT WOULD'VE GAVE ME THE RIGHT PART.
The only thing i wanted to know if someone knows for sure if they will work or not. Thanks aode06

Yea, summit still hasnt gave a buddy his water pump yet. He ordered it 3 weeks ago....been waiting...called them, said it was shipping. F(ckin Fed-ex lost it in the shipping

This is why i ship my sh*t via the big brown truck (UPS)...never had one problem from them.


BUt that should clear fine. CHECK anyways...always check. Sometimes its good to double and triple check....i cant even tell ya how many times i thought something was on the money and i went back and checked it and i was wrong, saved my *** many a time.
