Maybe I just suck at math, have fat fingers or just plain 'ol stupid. But I'm trying too figure out what lift my cam is with 1.6 rockers, I read that you take the valve lift and multiply it by the rockers.

.512 x 1.6 = .8192


Someone please educate me before I jump out of a window.View attachment 430570

If I'm not mistaken 5.0 cams are rated with 1.6 rockers (so you have .512 lift)....If you add 1.7 rockers that adds about .030 lift to the cam spec.
