Sponsor Sales & Specials - Stock Rocker arm Upgrade...

I know everyone has heard the stories of needle bearings being found in oil pans from the stock rocker arms. Well Comp Cams has come out with a neat little kit to solve this problem. (Part # 13702-kit)
We have decided to offer this upgrade to our customers.
I can sell you the kit for 130.00 plus shipping, but then you need a press, snap ring pliers, and efficient way to clean the rockers, and a lot of your time to take the rockers apart and reassemble them with the new trunions.
We are offering a full set of rockers with the trunion kit installed for 250.00 plus shipping. If you send us your old rockers back, we will refund 50.00 of that money. This way there is no down time for the customer.
So basically for 200.00 plus shipping you will have a very nice set of rocker arms upgraded with the new trunion kit.
if you are interested please give us a call at the shop
901-461-2891 or 901-461-5398

I do not have any L92 intake rockers as cores. I am more than willing to go buy 8 of them if I have customers ready to do the upgrade.
If down time isnt an issue with you, then of course I can do the swap on your rockers.
So in short, yes, the L92s are included. If you want this mod done, just call me and place the order. 250.00 plus shipping. 50.00 refundable once I recieve your cores back.
Keep in mind the first few sets of L92s may take a few days longer than normal because I will have to wait on my intake rockers to arrive to do the swap.

Pardon my ignorance, but besides the added security of a better desinged trunion, is there any benefit? Like less friction?

no.
the better design is the only benefit. this mod will eliminate the possibility of you ending up with any needle bearings in your motor.

I lost a motor because of this very problem two years ago! It is a very smart upgrade, rather than to lose thousands because you have a motor fly apart due to some faulty rocker arm. I have since went with Harland Sharp rockers but had I been presented with this deal I would have been all over it when I built my new motor.
Bump for a good deal, and as I said guys the $200 investment could quite easily save you thousands down the road!

I put these on mine and by the time you have the jig plates made for the press and CAREFULLY do everything yourself, paying the extra $80 to have someone else who knows what they are doing and not having much downtime is a very good deal! These are exceptional quality upgrades too and I highly recommend them!

Thanks to the guys who have posted here. I think this mod speaks for itself. 200.00 to possibly save yourself thousands down the road.
Since this trunion kit came out we have suggested it to everyone we do a major engine build for.

Is this similar to the service that HS does to your stock rockers? :) Except cheaper? :D I'm interested for sure! Road racing the car causes some serious stress and taking care of this weak-point would be great :D

Im not familiar with what you are talking about. I posted a link to the trunion kit above. I simply press out your stock trunions and toss them in the trash, and reinstall the Comp kit.
Call me if you decide to do the upgrade.
Thanks.

I plan on doing these on my new motor. Looks like a very nicely engineered upgrade. I have always been afraid of the needle bearings in my oil pan.

I was going to send my rockers to HS for the upgrade, but your price is much more attractive. I'll be in contact in the near future for this upgrade.

Just bought a set of extra rockers from the parts forum. When they get here, I plan on turning them around and shipping to you for the upgrade. Should be about 2 weeks.

Is there any performance difference between this upgrade for stockers and some random aftermarket rocker arms? Just wondering, cause i'm building a twin turbo 427 and if its all the same $200 is definitely cheaper than harland's or yella's.

That would depend on your overall valve train. There are some bennifits in valve train geometry with aftermarket rockers in some cases.
and of course with the aftermarkets you get the roller tip as well.

I can have a set ready to go this week. I will definately need yours as a core though.
Call me if you are interested.

I was hoping to get a set without sending my cores in. I was not planning on swapping them out until I get a set of the Mast Motorsports L92's.

Sorry but I just dont have enough L92s laying around to send them without getting cores in return.
If you decide to do it I will make the turn around really short. I will cover overnight shipping back to you via FedEx and can have the conversion done the same day I receive your rockers.
Thanks.
Jeff@SpectacleSolutions

I have a complete set of the L92s ready to ship.
200.00 plus your rockers and shipping.
I MUST HAVE YOUR L92 ROCKERS AS A CORE.
Thanks
