Tony Z,

Thanks for the reply, I hear you. But in practical terms I understand I shouldn't go through all the trouble of replacing my W140 with 1,25 rocker and Engle 6602 springs with a FK 87 with 1.4 rockers, because I would have to stick with the 6602s anyways right??

I mean in theory there is benefit to a certain extent, but my question now is: how much? would it actually make a difference in my engine. Would it live longer? Would it make some more power? Or it is just something to keep in mind when building the next one?

It's good to exchange ideas with someone like you, I understand you speak from experience. Here in Brazil the culture is not to build engines for long life, which I understand but I tore my engine with 2000miles on it and did not like some of the things I saw.

Best regards,
Marcelo
