Depending upon the application, the Hughes shafts are perfectly usable. And, if I was still using heads that worked with standard-offset intake rockers, I'd be kicking myself for having solid my set of rockers & shafts years ago.

The only drawback, as pointed out, is they are very nose heavy as a result of their "built like a bridge support" design.
