Hi again guys and girls. My question is.. Is it okay to swap my 1.6 roller rockers from one of my stangs to my 89GT w/ 160k miles? and is it also okay to bump the timing w/out problems? Thanks!

Yes and Yes...

Just check for wear on the rockers, and check the pushrods for cracks, the stock ones are prone to that.

You should be able to bump the timing, 13-14 seems to run well on a stock style set-up.
