The price alone should tell you everything you need to know...Junk. I've seen rockers break and dislodge keepers, dropping a valve, so I wouldn't trust budget pieces. That company is good for cheap water pump housings, ARP bolt kits, and girdles. Everything else is "get what you pay for"

Not personally, but I warned a buddy against it after reading all the negative reviews here. He did it anyway. They failed.

I have had good service from the company 440 Source. The rockers are like any inexpensive rocker. Don't stress them severely. I ran them briefly on a 780 HP 7,400 rpm 451 stroker. Pulled them and put them on the grandson's hydraulic roller in his pickup truck. They've be on there for years.

I have them on my Duster. I am just under .700 lift, and I have had a few issues with them initially. They kept backing off...Turns out the adjusters were bad. Put in a set of Hughes adjusters, and haven't torn anything up in a while. I do keep spares though.

I run my wedge stuff with mostly 440source parts and really not to many issues.
