I should do the About 600 Club proud... Course I didn't spring for the stainless rockers, wonder what that's gonna cost me.
the ss rockers are around 400.-500. now, they were more when they first came out. Difference in comparison to yours is not only weight but the increase to a 1.7 ratio.
As to your "about 600 club" I have no idea what that's all about. But, your motor should have more 550chp (I have reservations being over 600 though), but since you aren't a fan of dyno's, I guess you/we will never know.
