RE: rocker arm question - 5/10/2008 8:53:25 PM    tyler72 Posts: 639 Joined: 3/3/2006 From: Apison, TN Status: offline I have the proform 1.6s on my car. I bought them mostly because I was really tight on money. But so far, I am really happy with them. They are quiet, and seem to be holding up fine so far. But then again, they only have like 4 hours of run time on them. They are good for the money I guess. _____________________________ Tuners are like Tampons...
