Thought I'd pass along somethin another member on PT sent me:

"I used comp 1.75 roller rockers but would have stayed with stock rockers and saved $400 if I had to do it over again. Stock rockers are fine for these smaller cams and a lot easier to install as well. Also I had to modify the under side of my rocker covers to fit the comp rockers. They say in the ads that they will fit under stock covers but they don't tell you that is only after you have milled off the casting dimples (both sides) and remove the PCV shroud on the pass. side cover. I believe you have the return style fuel system so this will make your install a lot easier too."

Light at the end of the tunnel. I can't thank u enough, my friend. I wish we lived closer, we could shoot the breeze & I could help u cut grass.

I got a few things left:oil pickup tube o-ring (red BTW), R&R valve seals, w/o damaging. Not sure I need a J-tool or can slide w/. a socket of similiar size.
