1.6:1 is the stock ratio and going up to 1.7:1 is (non technically explained
here) like going to a slightly larger lift cam. The roller design also
reduces friction (and wear) which in turn provides more HP. I believe it
was Sam who posted a 24HP gain from the 1.7:1 Rollers.
Crower makes a complete kit (Rockers, Studs, Lock-Nuts, and Pushrods) that
is a direct bolt on.
