So, I know you get slightly more duration and quite a bit more lift out of the PI cams in the NPI heads. Now, aren't the PI rockers ever so slightly larger than the NPI heads rockers? Now if they are, shouldn't I use the PI rockers? Wouldn't I lose lift out of the PI cams?

Let me clear some things up for you grasshoppers .... AGAIN


The Jessel Aluminum is on the left, dual roller design for decreased friction, the higher the lift the more power to be gained, this is by far the lighest available and was a very limited production, we used a set of these on the worlds fastest 2V with great results.


Next is the Jessel Steel rocker, dual roller design for decreased friction, the higher the lift the more power to be gained, same features as the aluminum but heavier, this is the rocker we now use on most of our race applications (2v,3v and 4v)


Next is the GT 500 / Ford GT, single roller design, this rocker was basically turned inside out for extra cylinder head to rocker clearance, some people think they are a better, the only downside we have found is because the pin on the roller intersects less of the rocker, we have had the pins come out under high spring loads. The remainder of the body is actually a little more rigid than the other stockers which is helpfull.


Next is the FR500 rocker, single roller design, basically a stock rocker with additional clearance for a longer valve stem/ spring retainer, it can be seen in the bottom picture where the valve sits in the rocker groove. This rocker is slightly lighter than stock but has no other benefits.


On the end is the factory Rocker, single roller design, a great part for the money, they have good long life
