I will probably be able to with headers and some sort of spray. That higher CR should help.

Who was that guy by chance? Is he still around with that same setup? Just curious if I know him....

Rockers are a great mod, I haven't grown tired of mine yet, and i've had them in my car since 2003 and nearly 100,000 miles with them. And as was said above, A full ICed/Rocker/Header car can be pretty damn quick. I'm planning for 12s for my setup. My goal has always been at least a 12.9. I'm hoping with the addition of Alky, Higher Stall, Gears, and Slicks my goal is obtainable. I'm always skeptical though. I haven't raced the car in years at the track...

thats kew and good luck if you were in grand rapids, mi it takes zzp 2 hours to in stall aint that crazy they really know what they are doing and they quoted me $150 plus your rockers and 105 springs

Rockers are just a cheaper alternative to a cam...they make somewhere close to a cam but not quite as much...I know for a fact I've been beat by a intercooled and rockered car with my XP Setup and that thing was stupid fast...
And yeah when I had my 1.84's vs. stock I could really feel a difference around 4-5K
Whos Intercooled rockered car was that Nick?
04-19-2009
Damn two hours. I just finished putting in the front rockers and springs and when i go back to school next week i will move onto the horrid back side.

04-20-2009

Can i change the oil right after finishing the rocker job ? cause the motor oil is real old and i need to change it. Or should i wait the 250-500 miles zzp says to do.
04-20-2009
There's going to be a slight breaking period as the pushrods wear out any imperfections in the new seats of the rockers. If you have a magnetic drain plug it should be able to catch anything bad along with the filter.
I'm at about that 500 mile mark after my rockers and I'm changing it this weekend. I used dino oil though so I'm eager to get back to synthetic.
04-20-2009
ohh no, this thing got right up and went.... it was way faster than my car i know that hahahaIt probably had the catback off of it and it took it the entire HWY to get to that speed
