Well the car has been sitting since Oct. I switched from 1.7 rockers over to 1.6 due to one of the locks on the springs mushroomed out on me and I almost droped a valve. Had one of my buddies do the rockers... Yea bad call on that one.. There stud Mount Rockers and when I tryed to start the car it just didnt want to start I had to kill the pump by putting the petel to the floor and when it did start it felt like it was just missing or the rockers where just really really bad.. Im about to call Alternative Performance see what they will charge to fix everything that the friend Fed up.
I Have no clue on how to do that or i would try but i dont feel like messing up anything else. I was bummed when I tryed starting the car

Roller rockers are easy to install. Easy, but tedious.

Get a Hayne's manual and it explains how to install them in detail. It's NOT a hard job at all!
