Default Trick Flow's at Hinson.

Great move by Hinson. Those TF 225's got my LS2 past the 500 RWHP Mark with a small Cam. I think it would be a good idea for Hinson to offer
Milling services for those who want the additional Compression. I know it took some time to get them from TFS and knowing Hinson and their customer service you can get them delivered quickly. Leon

I highly recommend upgrading the rocker arms when you install a high lift cam as Seth recommends in his first post.

Below is a photo of one of the stock rocker arms after 10,000 miles with the Lingenfelter GT-11 cam. This cam is a high lift design with .631" intake and .644" exhaust lift.

1) Notice the where abnormal pattern and the groove from the edge of the valve stem. This is a sure sign of misalignment. I have since installed Yella Terra's and shimmed them to give a narrow contact pattern in the center of the valve stem.




2) Here is a rocker arm with the proper where pattern



3) Here is one of the factory rockers misaligned on its mount. The mounting rail under the rocker was bent either by the factory or the shop which set up my heads. The rocker arm wear pattern was normal, however, and did not show any signs of the groove noted in the first photo above.
