Comps, Crane, Harland Sharp ? T&D, Jesel, RAS not really in the budget.
Not looking to break the bank, but don't want something that is gonna need to be replaced every couple years either. I make 150 to 200 passes a season with a bunch of street miles. Cam is gonna be a small solid, but will likely grow in years to come.
What are your experiences with all of the above. I know I won't see any gains simply by going to a roller over non roller, just looking at whats available.
Thanks guys, If you're a WD or dealer in general, you can shoot me a PM with some prices.

I ran the the stock 273 adjustables with a small solid roller and had good luck. I believe another board member is still using them. I did upgrade to the chrome shafts from Mancini and I changed the adjusters out. But overall investment was less than $150 IIRC.

Thanks for the replies guys. For the time being the car would be run with a solid FT in the .550 range, but I'd like to be able to run a larger solid in the future or possibly even a roller, so I'd like to buy rockers once if possible. If that means I have to spring for RAS, T&D's or even Jesels then it would be money well spent for peace of mind. Andy I'll take a look at the PRW rockers. Thanks again guys.
