Hey i saw a pic somewhere what wheels and tyres are you running?
I run several different sets of wheels, I have a set of muddies on stock steelies, I have a set of BFG A/Ts on stock steelies, I have a set of H/T's on factory alloys but I normally run the OEM GSA's on a set of Xr8 rims....

Also: Its 300 bucks cheaper to buy the Aussie made Terra Yella roller rocker set from Quadratech than it is here in Aus, even with postage etc.
Quadratech just has the buying power i spose.
These roller rockers are crazy exspensive, look good though.
It does seem like the valve train may be a week point.
What about converting to adjustable I have done that before on different engines using limited machine shop tools.
