    Rocker arm swap

    I just ordered the SLP rocker arms (saved $25 on shipping with the calendar coupon [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img] haha). I was wondering if there are any other stock parts (Valves, springs, etc.) that can be replaced with new stock ones (or better quality aftermarket ones) pretty easily while i'm doing this, so I can go ahead and order them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

          Well, since the pushrods are included with the rocker arms, I was planning on doing that one....lol

            Would I need to get different valve springs, or would new stock ones work fine?

            I don't know much about internals....that's why I got a $78.00-per-hour racecar mechanic helping me, for free! haha
