We are running a GP for the SLP 1.85 rocker arm packages. These 1.85:1 ratio rocker arms are available for the gen III engines (LS1, LS6, Truck 4.8,5.3,6.0). SLP's exclusive design is based on the stock rocker and is built by the OEM manufacturer using the same high quality materials and processes. Versus the stock 1.7:1 ratio rocker, SLP's 1.85:1 ratio rocker will result in horsepower and torque gains by increasing lift by approximately 10% and forcing the valves to accelerate faster during opening and closing. SLP's rocker arms are designed as a bolt-on replacement for stock. No valve cover or cylinder head modifications are necessary and stock pushrods can be re-used. Depending on model application, optional SLP valve springs may be required. The rockers are offered in 4 kits to suit your particular needs. Refer to the application chart for details. SLP highly recommends our tool set (PN 53306) for proper installation. A rocker arm compatibility chart for stock cams can be found in the GP section of our website.

I've talked to alot of customers that have seen between 12 and 17hp from this mod. A recent magazine (I believe it was Camaro Performers) saw a 20hp gain in a '98 C5.

i'm not saying there wasn't a horsepower gain, don't get me wrong, just saying that my SOTP wan't that different...but when i do a mod i don't really feel it unless it's something extreme. the headers is the first thing other than nitrous that's really changed the way it feels in my truck, but i'm sure the cam going in right now will help a bit. heehheehe
