1.6 rr's

just wondering if these Proform 1.6 NSA rr's are any good or if anyone uses them. they are good price and just wondering if they are good quality. anybody have any complaints or problems with them.
i was looking at PN 778-66910

the heads im getting have 7/16" studs and guideplates so i dont need SA ones. at least i think the ones on their page are NSA.

Can't comment on the Pro Forms but a buddy of mine went with a budget rocker very similiar. Thing we noticed in putting the engine together and degreeing the cam was the variation in lift at every valve. Threw a spare set of Harland Sharps on there and everything was in spec.
Something to think about with this stuff is that you sometimes get what you pay for. The Pro Forms may be good quality but I'm just stating this as an awareness thing, so don't take it the wrong way.

yea i know thats why i wanted to know if anyone had any experience with the proforms. because they are cheaper then the rest but i still want quality not crap. sometimes things can be cheaper and still work great. but if no one has used them really i might think twice about looking into getting them hehe. if i knew a bunch of people that used them and no one had any problems then that might be a good sign.

Thumbs up

Agreed.
You're doing the right thing in polling the group. It's still early though so maybe some guys who have used them will chime in.

Good luck.
