RE: Im giving in!!!
Well the 1.7's are the dame price so you may as well go with them in my opinion and no you dont have to get diff valve covers just take a grinder or some snips to remove the baffle that you pour the oil into under the filler neck. There will not be any clearance issues in regards tp piston to valve clearance as long as you ar not running a huge cam in the thing. If you spending the money you may as well get some more power outta it.

No im keeping the same cam.
Now as far as the lifters, I can keep the same lifters with the 1.7 Roller rockers? Same goes for the rods except that Im getting the hardened puch rods.

not all cams can use 1.7s. hell my next cam cant use 1.7s it will just be way to much lift. 1.7s are nice for small cams to get some more lift out of them. this time bigger isnt always better. dont try to sell this kid something he might not need. he needs to know his true intentions of the car before he goes and buys parts that may or may not work in conjunction with eachother

Okay let me Clearify, all I want to know is if the Stock cam will work with these heads and 1.7's roller rockers, I dont want to have any trouble or problems with this later on?
I dont plan on messing with the cam, at least not at this point, The car will be Supercharged within the next 2 months so I dont want to run a too radical of a Cam, and from what I hear the stock cam will work just fine, Keep in mind this is going to be a daily driver type of vehicle so theres no need of a cam really.
By the Way thank you for the responses, this infomation is becoming quite usefull. More info would be great!
