Ferrea also makes them, for the H motors anyways, i don't know about the little sissy heads

but yeah, if they're like the ferrea's, they're roller rockers which are less drag then the slider tappet and also have a smaller contact area. smaller contact area with a lighter rocker arm mean you're moving less weight, so more power. the cam lobe i think is also thinner, so less weight there. as well as the removal of the VTEC lobe, and VTEC slider, thats less weight, and even less friction acting opposite on the rotation of the engine

its not the fact that you're in VTEC all the time, thats NOT the point of it. the point is crazy peak power with a decent weight savings, and a REALLY good friction savings, not to mention if you aren't sliding, then thats less cam wear and if you get a drop in oil pressure you can get away with more without destroying the cam/rockers like with flat tappet sliders.

having your VTEC set at like 100RPPM is not going to make your car any faster, we'll just call you a ricer

o, and you just get a vtec solenoid blockoff plate, much like an EGR blockoff or an IACV blockoff...etc
