Can the name of this product be posted within this thread, or just in PMs? I will be needing a set myself, always out to save a little $$.

I dunno why I wrote it like that. I did some investigating and comparing and found that the jegs brand roller rockers are identical to crane gold race rockers. of course I have not actually verified that they are the same product. I just put them on my engine that is going in in a few weeks but they look like a great product

Re: How much of a difference between these ??

I put almost 50K on a set of 1.5 ProForms over 30K of that mildly cammed with appropriate springs and they came out just fine. One of these days they will make it onto my other LT1. For the current AI package though I went with the non-SA ProMagnums. For a mild setup I would have no problem running the ProForms but on a more serious build spend the money on something you know is good.
