Default Ebay rockers 1.8 good??

hey,
anyone have the scoop on the stainless steel vs aluminum 1.8 roller rockers on ebay that are reasonably priced?

Is it garbage?
I would imagine the stainless steel be better just because of strength although its more weight.

Any feedback? anyone use any of them?

from the searches I found, not many are biting on these. Ill wait for the right time to buy name brand that have reputations. Im in no hurry so whatever.
I can always use the .02 though.

I would spring for a cam over running a 1.8 ratio rocker. You don't want a heavier valvetrain.

I was thinking the same thing. They are just steel so you can slowly start removing them from your drain plug every oil change.
