thanks for the reply.. thats cool.. im not going to get them. i dont like the bearings anyway. the proforms are on sale right now at jegs for 209 i might buy them just to see the fit and finish and if their not good send them back. i talked to one of their tech guys while back and he is a mopar guy with a 10 second RR (493) and he said they would be ok with under 450ish pressure and they did have some issues in the past. but they got them worked out and better adjusters etc etc. they are bushed now too. hummm



Here's an great example of cheap chinese craftsmanship, a Proform rocker arm. In some of the oil passages were small pieces of stones...
Never used them and took back to the seller

my buddy has a T&D (might be Jessel) rocker sitting in his toolbox that broke in half.


should we avoid those?



I ran an OLD set of well USED Dove rockers on my engine for a few years --- worked great. (those are $425 a set new) .


Now Ive got a set of used Harlands on my engine--no problems---EXCEPT one adjuster nut cracked apart and nearly went to pieces.

should we avoid Harland Sharp too ??

yeah you get what you pay for...even saying "but they only cost $200.00" still does not make up for that kind of cheep crap....
