Engine is a 440 with a M/P 528 cam and valve springs are proper springs for 528 cam ( sorry forgot spring pressure).

I am trying to decide which rocker setup should i install.

I currently have a set of 440 source rockers on the engine, but also have a brand new set of crane gold roller rockers (roller tips).

should i remove my 440 source rockers and install the Crane's.

I never had any problems with 440 source, just curious if Crane's are better.

thanks

That cam is non aggressive. I would leave the cranes in the box for another build.

Crane what? Golds? Ductile Iron? I think the Ductike Irons would be the best in that application

they are gold roller tip rockers.

thus
the 440 source currently installed are rollers on the shafts and tips.

Which is better quality

opinions ????

All I know about the 440source rockers is what I see on their web site. If you've been running them w/o any problems so far, I'd say to go ahead and keep using them.
