valvetrain noise change with aftermarket roller rockers

palemarry · Nov 27, 2001

I wasnt satisfied with the noise and just plain uncertainty of using my stock rocker arms(70,000+miles) on my rebuild so I ordered FRPP 1.6 rollers today. Do they make combustion in the cylanders more efficient by being able to fine tune them? Do they lower valvetrain noise? I already know they work with less friction. Please share you experiences

Oh yea, I also ordered new roller lifters for piece of mind.

good for lower friction, a coupla' ponies, but definitely not good for less noise. roller rockers (even when adjusted perfectly) are a little noisier than stock. When adjusted imperfectly, significantly louder... (heh, that's me!

)

I'm using the Crane 7/16" stud mount Rollers. Mine are very quiet, about the same as stock. I'm also using the stock cast aluminum valve covers so that might help muffle the noise some.
