LS7 Rocker Arms
Has anyone used the LS7 1.8 (#12579617) exhaust rocker arm as a replacement for the 1.7 intake and exhaust rocker arms on their 5.3L engine? If so, how do they perform?
Thanks
Thanks

I have one in a little baggie here that I plan to test fit soon. They probably won't work with my new heads, but I want to at lest see if it bolts up. I think it will. It look identical to a stock rocker.

I've talked to a friend last night who is "all wise" about GM part interchanges and he says the LS7 exhaust arms will work. You need to take the normal percautions regarding cam lift at the lobe and coil bind. I'm going to order a set on Monday. Will post my results upon completion. Currently using a VHP 044 cam, manley rods and Z06 springs.
