3.0 1.7 roller rockers

So here's what has been done.
I took my truck back apart and went through the whole rocker assembly and found that there were variances in the Morana rocker mounts. So i have done my homework and with the help of a local engine builder/machinist i have put together and tested a bolt on 1.7 Roller Rocker kit for the Ranger 3.0L.
The 1.7 rocker arms raise your lift at valve from .416" to .442" and let the 3.0 make better torque down low and more power up high in the rev range.

These kits require no tapping of threads and are a simple bolt on.

What I want to know is there a interest out there for these kits.
I would sell direct for $280 or i will be listing on my E-bay store for $310 and i am not just talking i have several kits ready to go now.

Like i have said before i ran a kit very similar to this for about 100,000 miles with no problems.
I just think my quality control would be a lot better and my prices lower. I paid about $400 to get my kit to me from Canada

Just wanted to see what you 3.0 guys think?

Here's a few pics of one of my roller rocker arm assembly's next to a factory rocker arm.


I'm interested in buying a set.

we now supply an American brand roller rocker that has a lifetime Greentree.
wich have no history of being off on measurements.


1.7 are $350 us
1.8 are $400 us
Where do I find 1.8 roller rocker ($400) v6 3.0 (2004 ford ranger )archie.ward321@gmail.com
