Default Comp R's...

When Andy put them in my engine he indicated that they may be more sensitive to initial adjustment than stockers and he put in Conp Pro Magnum SS adjustable 1.75 ratio roller tips and they seem fine and are relatively quiet.

I was told the Comp 875's (R's) are for use with adjustable
rockers arms...and they are very noisey.

The Comp 850's are good stock replacements.

If you decide on a new set of 850's, I have a new set I will
sell you cheap. E-mail me at Scantech@bellsouth.net if
interested.

Good Luck!

Don't run the Comp-R's unless your spring pressure requires them, or you are spinning over 7k.

They are sensitive to adjustment and will make your drivetrain noisy unless you have adjustable rockers and get them adjusted correctly.

i have stock rockers, and i am running them torqued down to 20 ft-lbs, no problems here, a little noisey but your needing to run these, you have a big cam anyway so its going to be noisey anyway
