Oh yea, that's the other thing I don't like: I wish my EQ's could use LA rocker gear. Every time I see a great deal on LA roller rockers in the ads, it FRUSTRATES me "a little"...LOL! why? pedestal/stud mount rockers are much cheaper, and on a low buck build, having a factory 1.6 ratio is nice, especially since most OEM LA rockers measure closer to a 1.4 ratio Yep 1.6 chevy full roller rockers can be had for $100 a set... I splurged and bought $200 harland sharps for mine lol. Oh I know. I'm headed towards the Chevy stuff. Sharp and Hughes Magnum rockers, although nice ARE a little spendy. I just prefer the LA shaft deal. Creature of habit I guess...
