y is the lift on the 5.2 higher? than the 5.9? and how much hp/torque increase will there be with these roller rockers?

Thanks.

I haven't yet decided if I want to get them or not since I probably will not be doing anything else to the motor except for new valve covers.

No idea why the 5.2 has more lift.

IIRC, they've been dyno'd around 10hp+ at the wheels. I would certainly spend the money again.

I did a lot and don't notice too much power gain off anything. It could just be a 5.2l problem.

air in, air out... more air in doesn't mean more air out if there is an obstruction, though you'll be needing that air out to increase tq and hp... it's all about flow through the engine..

what kind of shape is your catalytic converter in? factory Y? chamber style muffler like a chokemaster?
