I got mine form http://southeastperformance.com/. Check this link and call and talk to John Mercedes. I am e-mailing him tonight about some more parts (I can't leave well enough alone!)

1.7 for sure. I bought my roller rockers from Hughesengines but they are 1.65 adjustable and the best is that they are shaft-mounted, might want to call them and ask if they have them in a shaft-mounted set up with NON-Adjustable rockers. http://www.hughesengines.com/Index/p...=&partid=25628
OR
you can get them from Harland Sharp for a lot cheaper but with out them being shaft-mounted

I got mine from John at southeastperformance as well, afterall he's the one who developed these for our engines, might as well buy em from the inventor and save a little cash too.

To the OP, I believe the only choices are 1.6 or 1.7, and the ones you want are the non-adjustable. Most everyone here gets the 1.7 unless you plan on getting new heads or cam.

I just ordered mine yesterday along with my new SCT for my Ram. I did get a Email from Southeast, but I just didn't like the way the Email stated about payment and they also said it could take as long as 2 weeks to get my Rollar Rockers.
I get mine through Summit Racing and for the few more dollars they set me back is worth the peace of mind and I will have them by Friday.
I'm not sure how long it will take to get my Turner from HemiFever.I will get pictures of the new parts when they come in and then I can do a write up or give my 2 cents if this a worth while upgrade
