I was kinda wondering this same question but about a few different rockers. I'm looking at a JEGS catalog here and the Crane Gold race and Comp pro mags are both about $260, which is kinda expensive. Well I was wondering about some other rockers on the same page. How about the Jegs brand rockers for $199 or the Crane Blazer RR's for $201, or the Crane Energizer RR's for $189 or the Harland Sharp RR's for $201. Basically I was wondering if it is worth the extra $60 or will one of these 4 rockers be basically the same thing. There is also another set of rockers in jegs PN 778-66910 for only $156. Not sure of the brand though. Just wondering what you guys thought.

I think the Pro Mags would be my first choice, however the Golds are a REALLY nice set. Your splitting hairs here Dude. I had planned on buying the Summit house brand non-SA for $159. (I think there is a thread on them around here, they work good), but if your bent on selling off those crappy Golds, lemme know what you need for them.

I would be leary of straying too much from the norm on rockers. I have a set of Harland Sharp 1.6 rockers and they contacted the valvecovers in multiple spots.
Go with Pro Magnums non self aligning, guild plates and hardened pushrods if you don't already have them. Then you never have to worry about changing them if you change your setup in the future (i.e. solid roller etc).

The Comps have a little less weight over the nose.... always a good thing. I remember reading some stiffness comparisons here a year or so ago.... may have been in The National Dragster. Either way, the Comp Pro Mags, Hi Tech and Crower stainless rockers have a leg up on the competition in that area.
