Alumn. roller rockers question - 09/03/14 01:23 PM

Anyone had any experience with Speedmaster 1.5 roller rockers? Good, bad, or ugly? I've always used Crain, or Harland sharps. Would these measure up (or at least be adequate/trust worthy)?
Thank you, my Mopar brothers.

More cheapo, low-quality Chinese junk..
If U are just running a stocker/street cruzer, than maybe U can get by...

But if looking for reliable, high performance and endurance keep shopping..

Just my $0.02...

I went with a kit from Mancini racing last year. They offered a set of lower priced arms made by Harland Sharp. They have been working fine with both the 509 cam and the Lunati going on 3000 miles. 1.6 ratio. I think mine were around $425 They don't gain in lash, run pretty quiet even with the solid lifter cam and use ball/ball type pushrods.

Equals ProComp with their new name. I wouldn't gamble on them.

Rockers are the last place to save money. A failure, discussed here many times by victims, can be catastrophic.

It costs about $500 for a decent set of aluminum rocker arms. Steel or nodular rocker arms can be made for a little less money. $185 rocker arms are going to be garbage regardless of who makes them. That just isn't enough money to buy good materials and perform high quality machining operations. It takes resources (money) to buy high quality tools and to properly machine and heat treat parts.

A pair of Harland Sharp shafts costs more than that whole setup. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/csp-pr7001-78
What does that tell you?

I believe speedmaster is the name Pro-Comp Electronics puts on their rockers nowadays.
