What is the main benefit of the roller tip and needle bearing fulcrum?

The needle bearing fulcrum and roller tip significantly reduce friction compared to standard sliding rocker arms. This reduction in friction helps lower oil temperatures, which can contribute to improved engine response and potentially more horsepower.

What is the stud diameter required for these rocker arms?

These COMP Cams rocker arms require a 7/16" stud diameter. It's important to ensure your cylinder heads are equipped with the correct size studs before installation.

Are these rocker arms suitable for a high-performance engine build?

Yes, these High Energy rocker arms are designed for street and moderate race use. They are built to be stiffer and more durable than stock rockers, and can handle up to 550 lbs of open spring pressure, making them a good option for many performance applications.

Product Details

Starting with a needle bearing fulcrum and a roller tip, these die cast aluminum rocker arms from COMP Cams are built to reduce friction. This design helps lower oil temperatures, which can lead to improved engine response and a slight increase in horsepower. They feature a 1.6 ratio and are designed for Chevrolet Small Block engines ranging from 265 to 400 cubic inches, specifically those using a 7/16" stud diameter.

The larger-than-stock body is constructed from aluminum, offering a strong yet lightweight component that's ideal for street use and moderate racing applications. This cost-effective option is designed to be stiffer and more durable than stock sliding rocker arms, allowing for added valve lift while holding up to the demands of performance driving. Snap rings are used to keep the trunnion and bearings securely in place.

These rocker arms fit a wide range of vehicles, including models like the 1980 Chevrolet Camaro, 1991-1993 Buick Roadmaster, and 1988-1995 Chevrolet C1500. They can handle up to 550 lbs of open spring pressure, making them a solid choice for many performance builds.
