Other than that, they're a complete unknown since "we" just kind of stumbled across them recently. They look like modified Hughes rockers IMO and don't use needle bearing fulcrums, either.

They have been making ford and chevy stuff for a number of years... I know my buddy has had his for 3 or 4 years for sure.. he runs the chevy rockers on his 460 ford.. with no issues at all and they arent a Hughes

Didn't say they ARE Hughes rockers; I said they looked like modified Hughes. So, let me restate it differently: They look to have been INSPIRED to some extent by Hughes, although Scorpion has certainly added their own touches.

Not sure if they are set-up for 'walk-in' retail traffic in Ocala or not? It's been about a year since I was there. Great people and once they get their products dialed in and released, it's very good stuff! Call them! They've always been very helpful! Old Glory Automotive, Inc. www.oldgloryauto.com
