Default What upgrade bearing kit for stock rockers?

Been reading and was told that since ill be running 18lbs of boost and using stock rocker arms that I need to upgrade the bearings so they won't rattle out and come apart. What kit/upgrade company or what have you, are you guys using? Thank you!

Why? Other than price, why is his kit better than Comp Cams?

Not trying to be a snot about it, just trying to learn and make good decisions. I'll be buying one of these kits in the next week or so.

We use the same trunnions and bearings as Comp does, we use USA made bolts and larger snap rings that should never break and provide slightly better pricing.
