Has anyone on here used these rockers? Any luck with them? Does anyone know who makes them?

That's what I thought. Was just curious. What's your opinion on them?

PRW rocker arms are generally not a good idea for a performance application. Search on here and you'll find some threads with disappointed customers. I have read some of those. I've also been looking at the rockers from Rockers Unlimited [RAS]., but they don't list a pricing guide. At least a ballpark price.

What are you running for rockers now? The Mancini Harlands [gold]. I scuffed one up pretty good Friday night. Not sure I can get a replacement yet.

Comp ultra pro magnums get my vote too. Probably the nicest rockers for under $1000. I would have to change pushrods. You gotta pay to play.

You’d have to change pushrods with the SS PRW’s too. They have the cup style adjuster.
The “Mancini” aluminum rockers made by HS that I’ve used have been “red”.
The regular HS rockers I would call a reddish orange.
Nonetheless, I would expect replacements for either to be available.

Has anyone on here used these rockers? Any luck with them? Does anyone know who makes them? I’ve used several sets. There is nothing wrong with them. I wouldn’t buy them from Mancini though. I’d call Mike at B3 Racing Engines and buy them from him. And get his geometry correction kit while your at it. That’s what makes most rockers fail. Junk geometry.
Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

Last time I needed a couple of spares from HS, they sent me some right away at a very reasonable price.
It wasn't due to any issue with the rockers; they're still in the engine many years and God know how many passes later. That is good to know. I was going to try to get in touch with them B/4 I did anything.
