Im thinking of investing in full roller rockers for some cheap HP. Any imput ?

Roller rockers do not make power, but they reduce friction and in turn free up power!..
Power can not be created , you can only change it's form.that ought to put you deep in thought

But are they worth the money and time ?

My jet boat motor 460 Ford came with Crane Cams roller tip rockers when I bought it and the valves looked new yet (no visible wear to the valve stem?)
For the money $100? Stock would be fine, but everything you can do to reduce friction makes for a better longer lasting motor.
Roller Rockers are IMO better than stock and an easy install...it's your hard earned dollar so?
You might even save a few Bucks in gas?
And you can tell everyone you have roller rockers :rollside:
in some cases you can actually gain HP with a rocker swap by changing ratio. going from lets say a 1.7 rocker to a 1.8. with a cam lift of 0.466 at the valve with the 1.7s, swapping to the 1.8s, that lift will be 0.493 at the valve. but be careful when changing ratios as it can cause problems aswell. it all depends on the application. just something to look into if in fact you feel the need for new roller rockers.
