    Did you upgrade to 1.60:1 Rollers? If not...then why didn't you just say your car was stock? We all have 1.60:1 Rockers from the factory...and like stated...plus anything over 6K your gonna be opening up to the world of valve float...which is no bueno.

    raising them a little will have you a little higher in the HP range when you shift into the next gear, right?
