Author Topic: mods install USA-1 1st Gear Member # 1535 posted                    Installed the BTS bilstien kit. Car looks nice with the lower stance. Although the SLP Y pipe hits nearly everything now. I am now installing the Comp Cams LS1 valve springs, retainers and HI-tech push-rods. Have all ready found three bend push-rods in the right bank and one skinned finger . Will keep pluging away,probably finish some time Sunday. PS does anyone know the torque spec for the rocker arm? -------------------- 2000 Pewter SS Posts: 159 | From: Westfield, Massachusetts | Registered: May 2002  |  IP: Logged Sweden SS 1st Gear Member # 1747 posted                       According to the service manual you should torque them to 22lb ft (30Nm) -------------------- 1999 Camaro SS CCS #348 (www.CamaroClubSweden.com) SSOA #M99-0112 (www.CamaroSSOA.org) Posts: 154 | From: SWEDEN | Registered: Nov 2002  |  IP: Logged USA-1 1st Gear Member # 1535 posted                    The total is in. 7 bent push-rods!!! The left bank is a lot easier than the right to work on. To think the car was still pulling mid 13 sec passes on the 1340. Goes to show the potential of the 3rd gen small block. [ 25.
