Stock geometry doesnt help guys wanting to go nuts NA, but thank goodness none the less.

I wonder how straight the intake pushrod is laterally. I know from measuring the geometry, the only way to get a straight pushrod is to go through the spark plug tubes. Your either going to give up lateral angles or vertical angles to make it work around the OEM geometry. I never get why they don't go ahead and change the lifter spacing so that its wider, that alone would help the geometry quite a bit and would allow for larger diameter pushrods as needed. You could even possible get some additional material on both sides of the port.

Regardless, I appreciate jesel trying to supply a more affordable valvetrain option. Its definitely not the price anyone wants, but they saw enough interest to develop another option. Now, if we can just get some other companies in to offer something in the $1000-$1500 window.

What I was getting at is them being stock geometry, they are lift limited to like .670 with a stock ratio. Plus even though Jesel doesnt mention it, these rockers mandate solid roller lifters that pushrod oil the rockers.
