    1999 Camaro SS

    New heads, rocker arm, etc setup?

    I have a '99 Camaro SS with many engine mods. Currently, I have Mike Morgan Sport heads and I am going to replace them with newly acquired Patriot Perfromance heads.

    I am planning on ordering the Comp Cams 13705 roller rocker arms (1.85 ratio) and install Comp Cams 26921 valves springs.

    Also, replacing all of the hydraulic roller lifters with Comp Cams version.

    Does anyone see any mismatches here? I am doing the above due to multiple broken valve springs which started with the install of the Morgan Motorsport heads with their own valve springs, whereby the inner damper spring broke on about half of the valve springs. I have even broken one of the early 921 springs which were my replacement set.

    EDIT: Also getting 7.40" long push rods.

    You might want to double check your pushrod length. Might be too long. Stage II heads sometimes will come decked, so the pushrods might be too long. Broken springs, especially if they are duals can be caused by the wrong pushrods because it's too much tension on the springs causing abnormal spring fatigue. Just get a pushrods length check with the heads and check to make sure your valvetrain geometry is correct.
