Anyone use Elgin Roller Rockers

well, im hoping this post get some views as i cant find any reviews of these out in the ol'e interwebs

Does anyone have any experience with Elgin Stainless Roller Rockers? Specifically looking at PN SSR840SPRS they are 1.6 roller rockers for 3/8 stud. They seem like a decent option and Elgin seems to be made in the USA, i know they do OEM parts, do well with some cam and stamped rocker options, but i havent seen a review for them. Any help would be appreciated.

I took a quick look and found nothing specifically on those. But Elgin usually makes good stuff and for $130 on ebay they seem like a good deal. I will research them some more Maybe the TA will get an upgrade over the winter.

yup exactly the ones i was looking at. I did email the CS team at Elgin and found out they are NSA and good for .650 of lift, the pn for 1.6 and 7/16 is SSR 1840SPRS

im half temped to buy them just to handle them and see how they feel/fit.

Nice let me know if you get them. I have been thinking about 1.6 rockers for my build and with the new springs I put in I should have plenty of clearance
