Bruce Bowker Obi Wan Registered: 03/10/04 Posts: 2381 Loc: Bonaire, Netherlands Antilles	I would like to put roller rockers on my Seven, The engine is a Ford Crossflow 1600. Any ideas where I can get these and what all might be needed? Thanks for any ideas.

I was eyeing a set when I still had a 1600 crossflow powered Cortina GT. _________________________ Shawn J.

DrEntropy Great Pumpkin Registered: 09/15/05 Posts: 24161 Loc: Elsinore, DK	I don' wanna be a party-pooper here, but... what would be th' "cost/benefit" ratio for doin' it, Bruce?!?! All I can see is ~braggin' rights~ from here. ...save th' money for more productive endeavors. I ain't bein' "negative" with this. Just that the money spent versus the end-result could be a let down. _________________________ '64 MGB '67 Lotus Elan S-3 DHC '69 Lotus Elan +2 '78 Alfa Romeo Spider-current Daily: O=\/=O '84 300D Turbo:"Diesela"-SWMBO's Daily: OO\|#\|OO '66 Alfa Romeo GT - Upscale Yard Art: Oo=\/=oO Hey!

Bruce Bowker Obi Wan Registered: 03/10/04 Posts: 2381 Loc: Bonaire, Netherlands Antilles	Thank you both for your suggestions. I should reconsider. It may not be worth the money.

I don't know the cost for your application, but their prices are excellent, very reasonable for the quality you get: http://www.rockerarms.com/ _________________________ Alan '52 Austin A90 Sports Saloon '53 Austin Healey 100 '64 Austin Healey 3000 MkIII
