We all know that there isn't a factory rocker arm that comes close to spec out of the box so what if your 1.6 ratio factory rockers come up 1.54 or 1.5 rockers are 1.46 etc?

Should you be bounced then also?

Alex, if you read the posts by Travis Miller in the thread I linked above, you'll see that the ratio spec given is the maximum ratio allowed, and if you have less than the maximum ratio, you're fine, and you can make it up with lift at the cam lobe. If the spec is 1.6:1, and you have 1.61:1, you're illegal, but if the spec is 1.6:1 and you have 1.52:1, you're fine. You just cannot exceed the maximum allowed ratio.

I know Terry, I'm at a loss as to where all of the confusion comes from.

I've yet to approach Dave, Wesley, or Travis with a tech question that they couldn't explain the answer to clearly. At least, when the rule is in the book, and the information is in one of the guides.

That's not to say Glendora can't muddy the waters considerably.
