I have the track heat cam .499 lift would that change since I put the 1.6 roller rockers that cam in the track heat kit? If so what would it be now?

Nope. The stock rocker ratio is 1.6. Switching to roller rockers just frees up about 5HP from the reduced friction. If you bought some 1.7 Roller Rockers then your lift would change. I'd do the math but I just drank a 1/2 of a bottle of Shiraz (red wine) and I can't really think right now. To figure your your new lift do the following (1.7*.499)/1.6 and that should give you the amout of additional lift that you would see.

If you had 1.7 rockers then your lift would change to .530. Since you're using stock ratio rockers the specs will not change.
