I actually resent that I pay to get this crock of crap show as part of my Motor Trend video subscription, after a few drinks can't help but LOL at the backyard bullshit spewing forth from most of them. As a matter of course I speak to engine masters (not these tosspots but pro LS engineers and race scrutineers at the top of their game) on a regular basis and this fluff is... sensationalist at best.
Anyways, only trying to help with some real world experience over six years of reasonably constant research and development, but of course if you find a serial nutbag video segment which on the face of it says stick with the stock stuff then hells yeah, cheap way forward aye! BTW these guys also proved that the size and shape of header design doesn't matter at all either.
Really? That's not what I got from that at all. My take is that if your on a budget running stock ratio rockers than there is no benefit in going to a stock ratio roller tip rocker. They do agree that roller rockers are of benefit on high rpm/high lift combinations to improve reliability and clearly suggest that if you can afford to run the higher ratio rockers (and your engine combo can make use of the extra lift) then they are of value.
