Is this a street car, or a race car? The Comps are a nice little rocker. The price has been driven higher and higher every year, but still a pretty nice piece. At that level, I use the Comps and Hughes rockers. Once into a full race application, then I think its best for H/S, T&D etc. The alignment issue on Edelbrocks is just thjat. an issue. Years ago I had H/S change the roller wheel axle to better accomodate the Eddy heads.The axle simply has to be moved. The rockers were originally designed for iron heads, and even early and later version of Eddys seemed to have changed, even though they say no. So yes, unless you order H/S set up for Eddys, you'll have the issue that DJV has shown. Again, for a non aggressive race lobe, or a street/strip type application, the Comps and Hughes have worked great....

Just to understand the rocker geometry pics, those are both in the closed position, and with the alum rocker it looks as it moves to the center as valve opens and is under higher load, but then as it reaches max lift it moves somewhat back, but how much? The CM rocker is centered? in the pic so as valve opens and under more load it moves off center, but does it move back towards center at max lift? I suspect this is all a compromise solution anyway, but just want to clear what we are seeing here.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
