Thursday Tech Tip: Rocker Arms. Which Is The Right One For You?

Our friends over at COMP Cams have produced a video to help explain the types of rocker arms available and which ones might be right for your application.

On the surface of this topic it might sound like an easy choice, but when you scratch down deeper into the subject, you’ll find that different types of rocker arms suit different types of applications better.

Not all rocker arms are the same. There are steel and aluminum, stock replacement or roller rocker arms, not to mention a wide array of aggressive lift rocker arms.

COMP Cams engineers have sorted through all the data to come up with a pretty comprehensive method of finding the best choice for each application. Factoring in variables like valve spring diameter, RPM range and Valve lift, this method can take away the challenge of deciding what rocker arm is the best choice for valve train combination.
