Stockers are 1.7 non-adjustable. Any reason why? Having adjustables make the noises experienced even less. In my case I opted for 1.85's by Comp. Great pieces!

Between the two the Yella Terra's. Better trunnion and lighter in my opinion (I have no inertia data). As for performance, neither will buy you much if anything but if properly set up the YT's will provide an excellent wipe pattern. That is assuming you take the time to set them up correctly and then measure for pushrods as any height changes (shimming) will also alter pushrod length.

**** yella terra terrible customer service. not with hassle if you break or have to replace them. sharps are pretty close in performance and far easier to replace if necassary
