If you don’t start to use periods I am going to stab you in the ******* with this spork.

From what I’ve gathered from your jumbled disarray of words resembling a communication effort-

you are asking our opinion of 1.6 roller rockers and LT4 valve springs?

Get Comp pro magnum roller rockers and LT1 valve springs, they are a higher quality rocker.

It doesn't matter what clutch you have or what spark plug wires you use.

Don’t waste your money on a bigger TB. It’s been proven time and time again to be worthless till you have serious mods.

You can use those springs and roller rockers if you want but there are better ones out there. I wouldn't use the springs either way. Because when you do the cam the lt4 springs are barely good enough for the lt4 hotcam. I'm not sure how much the springs and rockers are. But i would only get those if you were gonna get the whole kit. Otherwise i would just get some cc pro magnums, or some crane gold rr. Then get the dual coil valve springs.

Oh okay didn't know that. Hey can you tell me the best valve springs to get with the cc pro magnums? They seem to have a few of them on thunderracing.com. My engine has 54,000 on it now should i get pushrods and lifters at the same time? Thanks.
