The shop that is working on my engine thinks that my rockers are the cause of a ticking noise and i want to jump to the 1.6 ratio so Im looking for a set of 1.6 narrow body SA, roller rockers. what companies make narrow body SA? i can usually find the ones that are self aligning but i cant find any that specify that there narrow body. I dont know if im just not searching the right places or what but if someone could point me in the right direction that'd be much apreciated.

Roller rockers will give you a ticking sound aswell, that's the reason the Lt4s got a different knock module along with composite valve covers.
Comp. Cams
Scorpion
Crane
And a few others have the rockers you are looking for. If you do go to a NSA rocker, use 7/16 arp studs, 7/16 1.6 rockers, New valvesprings and Hardened pushrods. Then get a mail order Tune, i used www.madtuner.com You will be a happy camper.

Re: 1.6 RR search

well yea i know what they should sound like but its a tick thats louder/higher pitched then what it should be, not like the sowwing machine noise they usually make. anyways i know those brands make rockers i just cant find the narrow body one's or can you just specify that upon order?
