Default Whats the deal with roller rockers

I remember very little about them.

I know the guys who rebuilt engines swore by them.

Lets say I put on some on a stock engine and didnt change the cam or heads. What will I see?

Any HP gains or is this a mod just to do and get the bragging rights?

thx

you'll see less money in your pocket, that's about it unless you make other changes as well.

Ok - what type of mods do i need to do to get the full effect of them?

Not that I am going to do them. The engine only has 40k on it and I wont mess with something that aint broke. But Id like to know for the future.

That would be nice to think they came with roller rockers stock but I doubt it. Im thinking stamped steel. I have the magnum engine. Next time I get an oil leak im gonna see whats under the covers.

please do, I know for a fact it has roller lifters, but I cant remember if it has the roller rockers to go with. If I ever get around to changing my lifters (there freakin expensive!) I'll let you know what I find

Steve, do you remember what your stock heads had?
