I dont know that ratio sounds pretty intense... sounds like a great idea if you are going to be at the track every week, but I am skeptical about how these will perform in every day driving situations just because the ratio is high from the factory (.7 or something like that).

All Im saying is Im not the type of guy to guinea pig his car with new products....

Anyone feel free to jump in here if I am outta line...

stock is 1.66 IIRC, maybe 1.7
rockers dont effect driveability as much as cams, they basically make the valve open more, not necc longer like a cam would ;)
