well.. a *slightly* rough idle is normal, but i guess your idea of rough and mine might be different. even before i had modded my truck, the idle was just a small bit rough, but basically in the normal range, from my experience. Roller rockers REALLY smoothed the idle out though... I can barely feel a thing now :o)

I'm thinking about those roller rockers. I know RoguePerformance sells/used to sell them. Brian, did you have to modify anything to get them to fit?

Cooler oil temperatures, less valvestem wear, less noise, smoother idle, more torque and hp... it's a GREAT mod and it gave a noticeable pick-me-up, especially between 3 and 4k rpm.

Yes, that's the same Fred I think I'm buying my custom tunes from I believe. He also runs www.rogueperformance.com. He's a 3.0 guru.
So far, Fred is the only one who has bothered to answer my email inquiries about special tune files.
Thanks for the info.

I guess they dont sell the roller rockers anymore but they say some will swap right in if I am reading it right?
