What is the benefit of a roller tip rocker arm?

A roller tip rocker arm, like those found on these COMP Cams High Energy rockers, significantly reduces friction compared to traditional sliding rocker arms. This lower friction can lead to improved engine response and help lower oil temperatures.

What is the stud diameter and ratio for these rocker arms?

These rocker arms are designed for a 7/16" stud diameter and feature a 1.5 ratio. The 1.5 ratio helps to increase valve lift over stock components.

Are these rocker arms suitable for high-performance engines?

These High Energy rocker arms are suitable for street use and moderate race applications. They are designed to withstand up to 550 lbs of open spring pressure, making them durable for performance use.

Product Details

COMP Cams is well-known for making performance engine parts that help you get the most out of your vehicle. These High Energy Die Cast Aluminum Roller Rocker Arms are a solid option for street use and moderate racing applications on a wide range of Chevy V8 engines, from 265 to 400 cubic inches. They feature a 7/16" stud diameter and a 1.5 ratio, which helps increase valve lift over stock components.

The body of these rocker arms is made from die-cast aluminum, offering a strong yet lightweight design. Unlike basic stamped steel rockers, these have a needle bearing fulcrum and a roller tip. This advanced design significantly reduces friction compared to older sliding-style rockers. Less friction means lower oil temperatures, which can lead to improved engine response and a slight horsepower gain. They are built to withstand up to 550 lbs of open spring pressure, making them durable for performance use. Snap rings are used to keep the trunnion and bearings securely in place.

This set is designed to fit many Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, and GMC vehicles from the 1980s and 1990s, including popular models like the Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and C10 pickup. They are a cost-effective way to upgrade your valvetrain.
