Save your money. Hughes has a good rocker set up and Mancini Racing sells a reasonable priced Harland Sharp rocker kit that does not use needle bearings.

They will work, but they require considerable pre-service preparation. Complete dis-assembly and cleaning, thread chasing, and very often you have to send back some of the rockers for exchange because the adjuster cup screws do not fit into the rocker body properly so that you can get the correct pushrod length and proper cup to ball oiling. If you have a LOT of time you can save a few bucks and have a good rocker system. Just don't take them out of the box and install them. In fact never do that with anyone's rocker system.

I used them after the above mentioned detailing and spring clearanceing. They came with adjusters for both ball/ball push rods and ball/cup push rods. I broke nearly every ball/ball adjuster(correct push rod length 1 1/2 threads out. The ball on cup adjusters worked fine. I sold them to another member who had no issues with them.

Quoted cost sounds a bit lower than Comp "pro magnum" rockers. That said, the design and QC on the Comps is likely better. I would and did run the Comp's because rocker failure is messy.

Brian @ IMM likes them, and I have a set of the 1.6:1 stainless rockers on my build- with his recommendation. He's ou812 on Moparts, you may want to talk with him.
