I'm thinking that would put me right at .540 lift? I really don't want to retard the cam if I can get away with it. Thanks!

ShiftTheDrift New Member Dec 16, 2002 365 0 0 Bakersfield, CA May 12, 2005 #4 May 12, 2005 #4 Correction, it's actually lower than .540. Check it out: .498 (e303 advertised lift) / 1.6 (old rockers) = .31125 * 1.7 (new rockers) = .529 lift Look right?
