All depends on how much money you want to spend and how much power you think you'll make. Also depends on the type of camshaft. I just spent two days on the dyno testing RAS, MRE, Harland and T&D rocker arms on my 470 engine which has Trick Flow heads.

Are there any other rockers in that price point that would be a good application for a street/strip engine with a 620ish lift FT cam in a 1.6 ratio? Last edited by 65Fury440; 09/03/16 12:15 AM.

The MRE rockers will work just fine with a .620 lift flat tappet. I know where you can buy a slightly used set of those rockers.

I am looking to upgrade the cam when I swap on the Trick Flows, and would like to go roller, but I am not sure about the rockers being able to deal with the increased spring pressures. Any real world feedback on how much pressure the Cranes can take, or if they'd last with a street roller.

Don't know how long "a while" is, could be several years depending on how hard you beat on it and how much spring force you have. They'll fit and work on the TF heads with decent geometry. I checked them on my heads up past 0.700 lift and they were fine.
