well thoes plastic things with the holes go between the forke type thingies (guide plates), the studs get lock-tite'ed into the head, and i think you bolt the guide plates in.

i worked on 1 cylender at a time. you have to make sure the cylender you are working on is at TDC.

you finger tighten the rockers down untill it dosent move (zero lash) and then turn the hex nut 3/4 of a turn. then the little allen threaded set screw goes in the hex nut and tightend down.

i know these are not the best directions, but you can look them up on the speedtweaks web page.

if you have a little more specific question, let me know.

the 1.6 is stock, just with a roller tip, and the 1.7's are a bigger rocker. they will give your cam a little more lift and duration.

if you are useing a aftermarket cam, go with a 1.6, with a stock cam, or mild cam, go with the 1.7's

if you are going with a aftermarket cam, go with the 1.6. for a stock cam or verry mild cam, go with the 1.7's

I am running 1.6's with the 112cl cam from krc. Its gonna be hard to tell exactly how that comdo works due to alot of other mods being done to the motor at the same time...but once i get her installed i'll let ya know

I can't believe Mopar Performance Roller Rockers would not come with directions. I'm putting my RRs on my engine that I'm building today. What a joke, I didn't realize they weren't in there until now. All they put in there is a 1/4 sheet of paper that says make sure you clean the adjuster nut and set screw and make sure threads are good. I'm doing it at work and I had to come home to look it up on the internet. This post was the first thing I found with info on how to do it and I just read the SpeedTweeks.Net info as well.

I'll probably post some pics of everything later today/tonight.
