    Default Rockers and Supporting

    Alright. Well my GT is top swapped, intercooled, ported tb w/ LS1 MAF, etc... I will be going turbo some time in the future, so I decided rockers will be a good choice as these cars seem to respond well to the 1.9's regardless of the power adder.

    Question is...what do you recommend to go with them? I already have LS6 springs that I got for a great deal, so those will definitely be going in. I would also like to know if pushrods are actually worth it. I was looking at the Comp Cams Thick Wall 7.05's made to go with the modded rockers. Can someone explain more to me what these would do? They are not very expensive at all if it would be worth it.

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    the new pushrods are stronger! modified retainers are worth there weight in gold, and also invest in some reuseable rocker bolts.

    but sounds like a good setup!

    Ah, there is a turbo car on this site! Awesome.

    Anything else? I think I have found a good set up that will be worth the gains (Easier install is a plus as well). Thanks for your help.
