That is not a bad deal, for the money you have in your build I woul grab T&D's or Crower shaft mount, I would not want YT's in my high dollar motor. $400 is a steal though, buy and resell. See if you can make some money!

HPR? They will not let you do shaft mount roller rockers?

Top notch minus rockers? Many documented issues against YT's on here and if you look at the Z06 FB page it gets ugly.

I thought HPR was doing the build? I guess that was SB only. I guess YT's will be ok on on a HR cam setup, I personally would pass. There are tons of Mamo cars and they seem to still work well. Too many issues to really want to use them though. Stock will be great until .660 lift and then after that go shaft mount RR's.

That thread is definitely helpful.
found a guy in Texas is who’s helping me through all this who use to work in development for Chevy for 50 years. and I read it got me a little scared but I trust him. I was hoping these would be solved with all these issues sucks to buy **** to protect it or buy a quality part but it just doesn’t work...

I'm using YT's on mine and absolutely no issues at all. I got my heads from AHP and I told Kohle I wanted to use roller rockers. He suggested I use YT's as well as a BTR4 cam. Now I do not under any circumstances track this car at all but I do the occasional spirited driving hitting red line. Hope this helps.

They do not...they recommend OE GM rockers for their LS7 builds. I get the money aspect, but I would've gone w/T&D pedestal mount.

Tell us about the build that the YT’s are going on...
What rpm?
What camshaft?
What valve spring is being used?

Before everybody here dismisses the Yella Terra rockers, let’s see if they are suitable for the setup. Is that fair to ask here?
You definately got a good deal on them. Are they new?
The Yella Terra setup works well for an entry level to moderate-high performance level build, if setup properly. If your looking to shoot for 7500+rpm, which requires ultra light, yet ultra strong valvetrain components, these may not be for you.

My NA build:
Ls7
Compression: Unknown still using 91/E85 flex fuel
Pistons: Diamond
Rod: Scat 4340
crankshaft: Stock ls7
He balanced this at the same weight as stock with the titanium rods
AHP moldstar 90 heads but he did the porting himself and promised me it would put down more power than any other ls7 head.
Cam: BTR4
Pushrod: Btr
lifters: Oem ls7
springs: btr .660
rockers: YT 6670
Stock intake
stock TB
Stock exhaust gutted cats
stock cold air intake.


later getting
ARH 2 inch catted x
Mamo msd
nw102
haltech intake
ATI balancer
e85
160 pound injectors IDs or fics

Pumps:idk


Stock rpm limited or maybe 1-200 more if possible? With this setup

You really don’t need more than a 420-430lb. valve spring with that hydraulic camshaft. I feel like the YT rockers will work just fine for this setup. Your going to be somewhat rpm limited with the Oem Tb and intake, as well as exhaust.
I don’t see the need for any more rocker arm than what your running with this setup. A lot of guys run the factory steel rockers with this cam as well.
