Are the rockers mixed on the shafts or is it a right and left set with different rockers? Some folks have changed half the rockers on the same banks to effect the cam. Not sure what was done but either the intake or exhaust rockers were switched out. Chuck

I recall Ted saying something about this a while back. I did a quick search but could not find it.

Games like high ratio intake and low ratio exhaust can help to trade some loss of top-end HP for a gain in low-end torque. Off the shelf, John's high ratio ass'y came all high ratio. If you wanted custom, I imagine he'd do that too.

Interesting, if that's true. I wonder if any Ford dealers might still have those parts? Otherwise it would require finding two salvage engines to get a full 8 cyl set. And what ratio are they?
