I personally don't know a single person in the country running after market higher ration roller rockers on a GTO. I am sure its been done but on the stock heads and cam I can't see where it would improve anything more than 5-10 HP.
They come stock with 1.6's.
I am still on the stock manifolds, anything I did internal to the motor would be at about 50% effectiveness until I get that exhaust opened up. This is my daily driver.... its slow as piss and I don't even like racing it. It just so happens its been making a fool out of people lately and that to me is more fun than busting someones ass in my camaro. People expect my camaro to be fast... they don't expect the GTO to leave their super charged 400+ rwhp Cobra in the dust.
rockers will get you very close to a .600 lift. and just because you have a bottle neck in your header or exhaust or whatever. doesnt mean your not going to gain power. your not going to gain the most that you can but if sure you gain more that 5-10whp. a cheater car is ment to look and sound stock aka you. so every little thing you can do puts you that far ahead.

I got outran by a stock 02 Vette the other night.
By 5 cars.
Is that not proof enough?
yeah and someone said YOU had 100hp more. so a ls1 c5 puts what low 3XXs down +100 that would be your in the 400s...? care to explain.

He was referring to Crank HP.
The Vette was stock at 350 HP at the crank.
My gto makes about 440 - 450 at the crank, assuming 16-17% drivetrain loss which equates to my 371 RWHP.
400 SAE hp at the crank. dont give your car more stock than what it is actually rated t.
and these are the quotes from the other board
and also dont forget you where spinning like a b!tch.it was a good race my car makes a 100 rwhp less than his and i drug him the hole way and let out at the end i guess he wasnt expecting a stock c5 vette to drag him so bad oh well oh yeah thacker tell your girl i said hey shes a nice girl i felt bad dragging u down the road so bad infront of her
no they dont dumbass they come with 1.7's wow king of ls motors huh
its true... i didnt catch that... but the 1.8's are a direct bolt in and gain 22 rwhp on an otherwise stock engine. i'll see if i can find teh clip, but it was a shop that did it on a blue '05 gto iirc.no they dont dumbass they come with 1.7's wow king of ls motors huh
btw, you'd never know they were therei almost did those instead of going with a cam, but i think i'm juts gonna hold off and spend teh cash on the cam instead.
you should just save a little more and do it all since you will already have the motor out and apart.its true... i didnt catch that... but the 1.8's are a direct bolt in and gain 22 rwhp on an otherwise stock engine. i'll see if i can find teh clip, but it was a shop that did it on a blue '05 gto iirc.
