ok im building this 1400 engine and ive got a cam from mike o for it (from a 14SR)

i need a set of rockers for it and have 2 options:

Option 1:
Buy a new set of rockers from my local motorfactors for ?50

Option 2:
Buy the rockers from the head that the cam came from off mike, which have done 2000miles and are original GM parts for ?50 and get free GM waterpump stat and thrustpads (all which i need)

ive had so much different advice, some folk saying only buy new, others saying use anything as long as its not pitted or scored, others saying the 2000mile ones will work fine

i need to know - i want these parts ASAP

cheers

lol i dont see the problem, all the parts im offering you were with that cam shaft!!!!! so no problems will occur


so the thrustpads, and cam followers are all numbered.......... the water pump and stat is even off the same engine!!!!! LOL
