What is the benefit of a roller tip rocker arm?

A roller tip rocker arm reduces friction where the rocker arm contacts the valve stem. This can lead to slightly improved valve lift and reduced wear on both components compared to a standard flat-tip rocker.

What does the 1.6 ratio mean for my engine?

The 1.6 ratio means that for every amount the camshaft lobe lifts the rocker arm at the pushrod end, the valve will open 1.6 times that amount. This effectively increases valve lift, which can improve airflow and performance.

Does this rocker arm come with the necessary hardware?

This specific part number is for the rocker arms themselves. It is designed to work with a 3/8 inch stud, and you will need to ensure your existing studs or compatible aftermarket studs are in place for installation.

Product Details

Starting with 8620 chromemoly steel, these COMP Cams Magnum roller tip rockers are built strong for street performance applications. They are designed to handle up to 350 lbs of open spring pressure, which is a common requirement for many modified V6 and Small Block Chevy engines. The roller tip itself helps reduce friction at the valve stem, and the stiff design combined with accurate ratio control means you get more of the intended valve lift from your camshaft. This particular rocker arm has a 1.6 ratio and uses a 3/8 inch stud, making it a direct fit for a wide range of Chevrolet V6 and Small Block V8 engines from 1988 and newer, including popular models like the Camaro, S10, and C1500 trucks.

The self-aligning design of this 1418 model simplifies installation, and the 1.6 ratio is a popular choice for street builds looking for an improved valve lift over stock without needing extensive valvetrain modifications. COMP Cams stamps their logo on the underside of each rocker, so you know you're getting a genuine part. These rockers are a solid option for anyone rebuilding or upgrading their engine's top end and looking for a reliable way to get a bit more performance out of their setup.
