A couple of valvetrain questions

First off i am wanting to use some 7/16 rocker arm studs on my car but i was wondering....Do you have to retap your heads for these to work? I mean i really don't want to mess with anything like that so would it even be worth it to retap the heads if i had to....Second...What is a REV KIT? Is it worth the money to buy if you had the money...Thanks for all of your help and advice

Michael

The 7/16" studs screw right in, but you will need different rockers for them. While your at it, since your getting different rockers, I would suggest going to a non-self-aligning rocker and hardended puhrods with guideplates. This will be a more reliable set up.
I've heard different things about the rev kit, someone else should give an opinion on that.

No, not yet, its been so hot up untill this month. A buddy wants to go to Kennedale on Thursday but its rained the past two thursdays since it cooled off, go figure. Maybe this week.
Glad to hear the rear is still holding its own.
