Ebay Roller Rockers

Has anyone had any luck with the "white performance" brand or the "procomp" brand of roller rockers on ebay? Or that no-name brand of stainless steel ones?

They look exactly like the comp cams types but they just don't have the name of the comp cams hold. So with that said, shouldn't they be pretty much the same? They're cheaper because they're not made by a high name like comp...plus I believe that they are made in the USA, which then they probably aren't the cheap Chinese steel that bends like gold?

Anyone use these? or have used these with good-bad results??

Thanks!!

-Tyler

Probably made by the same people in a sweat shop where they hit little kids with sticks.......I bet half the name brand stuff is made overseas.

Re: Ebay Roller Rockers

Stay away from the Pro-Comp Elec. parts. They have piss poor quality. Spend the extra 50 - 75 and get Harland Sharps...

Re: Ebay Roller Rockers

86,

I would recommend getting a set of Comps' pro mags, comps' wide body rockers, or the Crane's gold rocker arm set. They are both made of high quality material and have the oil passages located in the proper area so that the rockers get sufficient coverage. The difference between the two, price wise is only 50-100 dollars and this is not some place to be skimping on.

Just my 2c.
