Aside from rollers, does anyone know of any companies experimenting, or producing an aftermarket OEM style rocker set for B-Series motors? I never was aware of how much a set of rocker arms go for through Honda, but it makes more sense to just buy a new ITR head and part it out.

A lightweight durable set of aftermarket plug and play rocker arms would make a company a lot of money...

 

I doubt they'll make a lot of money because you get those people who "dont want to pay too much".

 

I would say no from a shop point of view - the factory stuff has such good set up most walkin guys wont want to make the jump.

 

web makes an extended swipe rocker made for high lift cams

 

phantom grip offers a "vtec killer" style rocker, which takes the space of the 2 outer rockers and utilizes the center oem rocker. not sure how well these work, being that ive never gotten a chance to use a set or even seen em being used.

For every 10,000 racers that will say they want something, only 1 or 2 will actually buy it.

 

I have been experimenting with machining some, not finished yet but I hope to have them done in the next 2 months.....

 

WOW! Impressive work! Man I wish non-vtec heads had rockers like that! Stupid ball ends!

Interesting! Are you planning to do any FEA analysis on these?

 

up, i want to hear some personal experiances with these aftermarket rockers.
