Roller Rockers Trick flow heads

Searching for roller rockers for Gen x 255cc heads and I can't find anyone that makes them. I thought Yella Terra was coming out with some but I just checked their website and they don't. A few months ago I called Trick Flow and they said they would get back with me and nothing.

Anyone know if the aftermarket makes these?

Thanks for your time,
Robert.

Why not keep the stock ones?

In the future I want to build a 454ci solid roller cam engine and the large cam lift I want to use might be too much for the stockers. I could be wrong.
I have an email into Jesel. They make a shaft mount for the 235cc heads so they may have a set up for the 255cc.

As mentioned above, T&D. I run a set of their rockers for the stock heads with an LLSR, quality and design is top notch.

I have the Jesel rockers on Frankenstein modded LS3 heads. As others have already posted, T&D and Crower are excellent choices. If you go with tall valve covers, you may need to reroute the a/c lines for clearance and removal.

Thank you, good to know. I saw the price on the crower shafts and it's 1700 and I was thinking not bad for a set, but the more I look at it I think it's 1700 per side. That's a lot of money to me. Might have to go to a plan B. Lol.

That's for a complete set, both sides, check around on price you can do a lot better than that. kip at cam motion gave me good deal on mine but I did buy a lot of stuff from him.

you will need tall valve covers to clear. I did have to bend the AC lines slightly away from the valve covers.

Check with Mama Motorsports. I have the 265 cc Trick Flows worked over by Tony Mamo. It's on a LS7. He had a set of Yella Terra Rollers made for Trick Flows. I believe he has them for LS3 as well. Much cheaper than $1,700 too

I have the same set of Crower's on a set of FRH ported TFS LS3 heads. Nice set of rockers. I was told that the price has gone up for them, I think I was recently quoted $1650. I've been pleased with them.

That said, I'm about to go through an upgrade, so I'll have my whole top-end for sale in the near future.

I'll keep my eye out on the member's classified. Thanks.
