holy crap, $800 Roller Rockers. new in summit

[dderek]

got bored looking through new summit online.. saw that crane cams makes a new roller rocker that costs $800!!
jesus.
suppose to be better.. but i dont see how it could be worth like 4x the others.
maybe some magazine will review them.
they dont even say what ratio they are.. 1.6 or 1.7,

So what are the bennifits of those RR's. People are revving to 8K with the Comp series RR's and others. I guess if you had a .800 lift cam at 8000rpm?

they are not you avrage run of the mill rocker arm if you notice they are shaft mounted rockers. that is avrage price for such a creature look a jesel or harland sharp shaft mounted rockers they are 7 to 8 hundred bucks. no need for a stud girdle polly locks or studs so you have to take that into price also. yes they are expensive thats why i dont have them but they are supose to be the straight poop

Shaft mount rocker's are great but really all a guy's need's for a street application is Stud Mount Roller Rocker's like Comp Pro Magnums etc. etc. Shaft mount is great for solid cam's and high RPM engine's.... You'd be spending alot of money for nothing if you wanted to slap those on a mild 302.
