Need help Well here is my issue my scorpion roller rockers failed due to seat pressure from the springs i guess. I am looking for a set of stockers to use until mine can be replaced from the company i bought them from or for sell if anyone has any.

I have a set of stockers on my project truck 5.3L that isn't installed yet. PM me your number.
I'm planning on going through Tacoma on Saturday sometime on my way to Olympia.

The YT's are half the price. Your in that thread I just read, it could be a suspect rocker.

maybe you dont really need to drop 750 on rockers?
According to their website Scorpians have a lifetime warranty.

ya but i am also reading around and the noise i am hearing might also be a lifter. so might be time for a new motor cause its a horrible sound. I will know for sure when i get off gonna pull the covers and see what the deal is, praying for a rocker arm. I have a feeling since i am moving its gonna be a lifter since thats my luck

if it is a lifter would the sound increase over time because it started out quiet... then it got real loud all with in a few mins then i had idle issues only reason i thought it was the roller rockers was because people have had the same issue with these rockers before and same symptoms i have. Which would be loud metallic sound and no knocking

loud metallic sound and knocking.... you know.. when my cat broke internally it made one hell of a racket. If its broken and clogging it will cause idle issues I believe and it will knock with the sound of the motor. Mine did. We had guesses from bearings to rod's to severe piston slap and it was just the substrate in the Cat broken.
