"Anyway, I REALLY dont want to spend another 450 or so on a shaft setup."
Do you mean STUD mount rockers most heads are made for both. You can get a set of 1.6 Crane Blazers for $200 and they are nice quality pieces, the stud mounted rockers are better for higher HP cars. Stay away from the 1.7's they add a lot of stress to the drivetrain and can cause problems with big cams, stay with the 1.6.
A Shaft mount system is nice but it will cost you $450, you could buy the stud mount 1.6's for $200 and add a set of $125 girdles if you are worried about deflection.
