I used my stock rockers for AT LEAST 6 months. No problems.

they are the beehive PAC spring. I had a guy say that the cam has too much lift for the stock rockers. Didn't know if that was true or if it was just his guess.

with those springs you might as well opt for some 1.6's and get what you paid for out of the cam

yea well if the stockers will work then that will have to work for a while. Doing a complete rebuild to a 383 so the money is getting tight.
