Hey,

Im looking at the Crane Rocker Arm Conversion Kit.

http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=CRN-36655-16&autoview=sku

Im thinking of switching to these for more adjustment in my valve train. As im getting ticking from my ped rocker arms.

Are these good, will they give me more adjustability? Or should I just stick with what I got?

Can they handle up to 500HP?

Thanks

Well my plan is to supercharge the car with a S-Trim, with around 8 psi.

Its not h.p. that will kill the conversion kit or any rocker for that matter, its, rpm, valvetrain setup, harmonics, p.r. length, etc...
Im using a pedestal rocker on my 505 rwhp combo w/ NO problems, because I keep it under 6500 and have everyting else in check.

Thanks for the info.

Right now I have pedestal mount Cobra/Crane 1.7 roller rockers.

Can I still use them or do I need to get stud mount rockers to work with that kit?
