Those are some very nice shaft mounts. I have used probably 25 sets of aluminum (stud mounted) rockers over the years, and all I said, was that I was never a big fan of them.....over the years have had a couple (good ones, Comp and Crane) distort and a couple with needle bearing failures...have also used a bunch of sets of the Comp magnums....never had a failure...thefore liked those more....

Gee whiz....

I'm with you. We tried several mfg's aluminum rockers in our circle track cars over the years. All the aluminum ones had issues. Comp, Crane, Harland Sharp.... The Comp Stainless ones.....not one issue! Just personal experience talking.

Now get that thing running again!
