So Erik what do you say about the 1.6 rockers? I guess for now I will use the 1.5s first for a slightly gentler break-in and then use the 1.6 rockers after everything is running OK, but even at 0.454" lift on the exhaust that is pretty mild, eh?

YES,IT IS A VERY MILD CAM BUT IF YOUR WIFE IS LIKE MINE SHE WOULD NOT LIKE AN ENGINE IN A CAR WITH TO ROUGH AN IDLE MEANING A LARGER CAM.THE 1.6 CHANGE WILL GIVE YOU A LITTLE MORE LIFT.IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT YOU CAN ALWAYS CHANGE THE CAM TO A LARGER CAM DOWN THE ROAD.WHAT DID YOU SAY THE CAR'S WEIGHT IS?
