Originally thought my coolant leak was coming from WP, turns out its coming from between the block and the head. Had the wonderful opportunity to witness it yesterday afternoon.

So I'm replacing the head gasket asap and figure why not throw in some 1.6 rockers while I got everything apart.

So far I got this together

1.6 Comp Pro Mag Rockers (3/8) $275.99 (1305-16)
GMPP Guide Plates (5/16) $39.04 (NAL-14011051)
Hardened Pushrods (5/16) $35.88 (7808-16)
LT4 Springs $39.44

What am I missing? Any other suggestions? I plan to eventually upgrade the springs later on when I do a cam, but right now the LT4 springs are so cheap they can be thrown away later on. I'm trying not to cut corners but at the same time I don't need a super serious setup.

 

you already made a post excactly like this a while back and we answered...
1.6 pro mags 7/16 stud, get arp 7/16 studs. gm guideplates...comp beehive springs. lt4's will settle. hardened pushrods are a must.

 

replace your valve stem seals while you are in there... they are only like 20
