Long arm rockers

Post by Little Mouse »

On intake valve would crowers long arm rocker with .090 back set the longer length to the valve make up for going to a higher ratio rocker in part at least to make it easier on a flat tappet cam ? Was thinking a lower lobe lift with as much size in the base circle and using more ratio be a better way to go on lift.

Any ratio increase gives higher spring load on the tappet.
