Probably are not 1.6. If they are the needle bearing rockers (and they look like they are), then I have seen a lot of these break. The bushing type are a lot better, imo.

If those are Autocrafts, they are very expensive ones. The ones shown on this site are billet aluminum, I dunno about those 1.6's on ebay.

I would say those are 1.4 rockers.They don't make a 1.6 in a conventional vw style rocker.BaddVW the rockers you seen on Autocrafts site are designed for their Component Development line of heads,they won't even come close to fitting a vw head.

Would they be worth buying if you could get them cheap?
