That's what I'm saying. I know lots of guys like them, and at times, so do I. But under .550" lift, that money can be better spent getting air in and out...and as far as side loading of the valve or scrubbing the tip is concerned, how many miles do the average one of us put on these cars? In 10 years we MIGHT have worn things enough to cause an issue.

All that said, if you're in a position where you NEED to buy rockers (change to solid cam, preload issues, etc) then buying a quality set of adjustables/pushrods isn't a bad idea, and roller tipped are going to be marginally more expensive...
