Just ordered Ray Bartons rocker system, seemed to be the best laid out rocker system for the gen2's and was a month away when ordered. He has sold over 800 sets of them.

I'm using the MP/KB blue billet aluminum stands. Can't go wrong w/ Stage V though. Only thing bad about the Barton setup is the price, lol.

Which stands allow the geometry of the intake and exhaust rockers to be adjusted separately?

Of course. Just from the visual aluminum isn't flexible enough in those dimensions to not keep the shafts aligned.

Probably just due to weight. Everything is heavy on a hemi.
