ok how about actually witnessing the install and then being passenger in the car once e-series cam and rocker gear are installed.. is that good enough? or would you perhaps like me to be the actual owner of the car too? Sorry I don't underrstand what more you could be after?

But are you using the eseries rockers? I should have been more specific in my question, will it run using au rockers?

why has no one realized that bolting some 2:1 rockers on to their stock camed AU may actualy be a cheap upgrade.

same way the V8 girls buy high ratio rockers and the V6 commo kids do the same.

have you done this with any sucess tickford? I can see what you're saying, e series rockers would effectively give a higher valve lift on a standard cam.

Please correct me if I'm wrong

I've never had an AU that i could play with. so long as the valve springs are up to it and there are no clearance problems with valves and pistons there is no reason it won't work.
