As the title suggests, can anyone give some thoughts/ideas/opinions on whether the CompCams Magnum rockers would be a good upgrade? I know many people here run the Pro-Magnum, but right now price is an issue. Also, with 127K on the motor, I figure any little bit will help with power until I'm ready (forced) to rebuild.

Thanks.

aren't they the same thing? Comp Pro Magnums?

 

No, the Magnum rockers look like the stockers, except they have a roller tip. THe Pro-Magnums have the roller tip as well as needle bearing truinions (and I think they are stronger chromemoly steel).

 

ohhh....ok

 

IMO, I would not bother with roller tipped rockers. The full roller rockers give the most benefit. I think if you compare the price of the two, the Pro Mags are a better value.

 

Ditto, i wouldn't waste my money on the magnums because you'll end up upgrading later. You could just get some nice used ones. I have a magazine laying around where they dynoed all the diff rockers and i think going from a roller tip to a full roller gained like 8 hp and decreased oil temp because of less friction.

 

No kidding, roller tips aren't worth it.....full roller is the only way to go--or else i'd just stay stamped steelies
