Default PRW 1.8 roller rockers any good?

So I'm in the process of building an engine and came across PRW aluminum 1.8 roller rockers. Has anyone used these and if so are they any good?

I'd stick with stock rockers until I was to the point of needing to spend $1,500+ for a set of Jessels....fyi, I'm running stock rockers with the bearing upgrade with a 255/271 .624/.624 115lsa cam, spinning to 8,000 rpms with 450 pounds open spring pressure and have had no issues.

I started a thread a while back, but never received or found enough info about them to
convince me to take a chance and try the PRW rockers.
