It's my personal belief that whenever you do a rocker change, you should upgrade to 7/16" studs anyway (even better, NSA). For the ease of changing them and the relatively low cost, there's no excuse to use a safer, stronger stud on a higher revving motor.

I'm using the Cranes on my setup with a similar cam.

what benefits do you get using 7/16 studs? How big of a deal is it to change them out. I am going to be installing an xe224/230 in a little while with all new springs and rockers(of course)...ect so should I change the studs to 7/16? Why?
