    I've never heard of ZZP failures on rockesr. And we all know...I'm not a fan this week.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Yeah I can remember 2-3 clubgp threads from years ago about welds coming loose in ZZP rockers, that's why I mentioned it. Also the HS rockers never did hold up that great. I have 1.9's in my car and couldn't be happier with how it turned out.

    I'll beat you to the punch then...

    covert it to E85 and leave everything else alone and enjoy even more gains.

    And all you have to do is buy injectors, a pump re-wire, and a modular pulley system...probably could run a 3.25" with 42.5lb injectors with what...a u-bend delete?

    And a tune of course...but that's it.

    You won't have any issues with yella terra rockers. It is recommend to do the timing chain when you do them, especially if you are high on miles. New stock chain and dampener will be fine, no need go aftermarket.

    Yea. Crow 105s will be ok with 1.9s with the proper retainers.

    Doing the timing chain and dampner , might as well do a cam
