Could the kit be used with an L98? Everything, the rockers, springs, retainers, etc., everything thats comes with the kit.

it would fit yes... but i've heard that the tpi intake manifold doesn't support the airflow needed for that cam... like the name implies its a hot cam, and you need an intake manifold that can supply the cylinders with the air that that cam wants...

I said thats the lift if you use 1.5 rockers but the kit comes with the correct 1.6 roller rockers.

i was thinking that but i wasn't sure so i didn't say anything... the 1.6 rockers will give you the lift that the kits says right? .525 on both intake and exhaust... if you leave the tpi rockers on there, then you will not get the complete lift the kit offers
also the heavy duty timing set is recommended to go with the kit... i'm not sure what the cam gear on the tpi engines is like... but the heavy duty kit uses a solid cam gear which will allow you to turn rpms above 5500... which is a beatiful thing :evillol:
