if thats all your doing it should be easy. You take the valve covers off, unbolt the old rockers and bolt on the new ones. I have heard that the stock vc gaskets (metal framed one) can be reused. I bought new ones anyway.

Harland Sharp rockers are the only roller rockers(so ive heard) that were designed specifically for our Magnum engines.

again, cheapest i found.
southeastrt 325$ shipped check or m/o or 335$ on a card,harland sharp 345$+shipping.

you will gain around 30hp across the rpm range.and they are designed just for our motors.
I think some one was exaggerating when they said roller rockers give you 30 horsepower.

its not just the roller thing. our rockers are 1.6 and these ones are a 1.7 which gives you more lift. kinda like adding a mini cam.

and i agree that 30hp is a little much.but if you do a search there are a couple dyno runs that prove it.
if i can find them again i will link them for ya.i do alot of research before doing a mod.

i would also like to say i have no experience with these rockers yet. i will be getting them here in the next couple weeks.this is all stuff that i have read in a few different places. maybe i should just shut up until i have some real experience.lol
