Roller rockers will have less friction on the drivetrain, causing the
motor to create a little more power. If you install the 1.7 rollers,
you will increase the lift ratio over the stock 1.6. With the reduced
friction and extra lift combined, the increase in power should be
noticeable. I believe some have reported 20hp at the rear wheels.
Your mileage may vary. :-)
