The time has come to get some rockers and after reading some horror stories about needle bearings exploding in someof them, and seeing how some of them (FRP) get horrible shaft play i am considering these. hell i even considered using stock stamped rockers.

these are the ones i was thinkng about using. and another benifit of these is they dont have poly locks to worry about.

COMP Cams 1442-16 - COMP Cams Magnum Steel Roller Tip Rocker Arms - summitracing.com

so ets hear some opinions on them. good and bad.

I'm using Scorpion 1.6, 7/16 stud mount. Been on the car for 60K miles (daily driver). Never had to re-adjust. A little expensive, but a quality product.

I thought the thread topic here was "what are your opinions on the Comp Cams rockers"....not "disregard my question and post your own suggestion"?

well you need something that will last and it has to be 1.7's with your cam, crane made the 94-95 cobra's with those and I have heard nothing but good things about them, no noise what so ever and I highly doubt comp's or frpp or anything else will last as long imo, even the harland sharps, I mean you dont see any of those going into production cars...
