Thread: 1.9 rollers on 97 heads

Since my silver car is eating more and more of my money, i was thinking about doing a basic 3.4" build on my green car. I want to swap over my 1.9 rollers and l76 valve springs but, then im thinking about how the 97 heads get small cracks in-between the intake and exhaust valves, and im thinking maybe its not such a good idea due to more stress.

Anyone run 1.9's on their 97 heads?

Maybe i should just get 98-99 heads?

Or maybe ill upgrade the silver car with L32 heads and swap them over to the green car? Any noticeable gains with the L32 heads?

L32 heads vs. L67 heads...stock for stock...the valves are a smidge bigger in the L32 heads...you PROBABLY wouldn't notice that much of a difference...but I say...get the heads done and do rockers at the same time

Also...I've never heard of anyone local have '97 issues with the heads cracking with stronger springs and even cammed...Just get 1.8 rockers that way you don't need springs yo.
