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?

The reason you use 1.7 rockers is that the 1.8 and the 2.0 ones use larger-diameter adjusters. And so the holes in the rocker arms are too big for the 911 adjusters.
(I'm not sure about the 73 cars; I think the 1.7s may use the early-type rockers and the 2.0s may use the late-type, but I'm not certain of that.) --DD |
