I have a 91 LX with stock heads, valve covers have never been off, and I want to throw on some rockers I've had around for a while. I have Comp Cams 1.6 roller rockers, studs, guide plates and pushrods out of a set of 351 heads. Is this an easy swap, ie unbolting the old rockers and tightening down the new or are there some devils in the details? Anyway, heres a couple questions about the rockers:
1. Are the stock rockers pedestal mount or stud mount, if they are stud mount are they pressed in or threaded?
2. Exactly what do I need for the install, parts wise, besides the rockers and the studs?
Any help is greatly appreciated guys. Thanks in advance.
