I just bought a 99 gtp and it has 1.6 roller rockers...i want to upgrade to a 1.8 but i want to know how difficult it would be and if i should invest is push rods or would it be alright with the stock ones?

Re: Help

if i did get my supercharger ported where would be a good place to have it done. I live in Abilene, KS is there anywhere close? and how much do you think it would cost me?
 


Receipt for parts and shop....it also has cold air intake headers cat back exhaust and high flow cats and plug wires....I don't know how to port it
 
I suggest re-reading darkhorizon's post. IMHO it wouldn't be worth your time to do it, unless you got a geat deal on some roller rocker 1.9's for it. Even then gains would only be decent. I only have HS 1.9's on the car because they were already on the car when I bought it. If the rockers were stock I'd have just bought modd'ed ones or looking into a cam swap.
 
Well I don't feel like pulling the whole engine so I think i will just leave it be...thanks for all the help everyone
 


Then why would you have to pull the motor?

Alt, belts, tensioner, coil bracket.

Maybe a few brackets for some sensors on the back side.

Other than that, theres nothing in your way.
 


I would have room to get the cam out? And get a new one in without pulling the engine? This doesn't seem to make sense
 
I think he's on the subject of cam swaping, I think. If that's the case plenty of members have lowered the cradle, pulled the cover off and swapped the cam.
