I currently have pauter rockers on my 2.0 L motor that I acquired. I'm considering going back to stock rockers or doing the 1.7 modification to the swivel foot. What is the benefit of using the 1.7?

I bought a VW Beetle engine with swivel foot rockers. Two of them failed within 5.000 miles. They were junk. I went back to originals.

That is because they were cheap chinese parts. Use original 911 swivel.
