Ebay Rockers? Anyone have experience with these?

It does say that "bidder is responsible for researching fitment"... Sentences like this make me feel suspicious?

Okay, I just have to pick apart that ad! Please anyone, correct me where I am wrong.
> (Bidder is responsible for researching fitment)
> These "Pro Race" Shaft Rockers are 1.7,1.8 ratio and are compatible with the factory heads.
As stated above, WFT does that mean? They state compatable with factory heads, but then we need to research the fitment. okay, what-ever.
> this rocker arm system is a definite improvement over stock rocker arms.
...really! That's good to know, I guess we'll have to take their word for it.
> These retail in J$GS for $989.99 Get a deal today!!
...really? I cant find them listed at www.jegs.com anywhere. Maybe I am searching for the wrong Brand or something...or maybe that $ is a typo or intentional to deceive the bidder.

Does the NHRA have a spec for rocker arm??

Kinda funny,they look like some t-n-d knockoffs. I would say they work them saying do your research basic meens you buy them for some TF or l92 they wont work. I guessing your factory head be fine. Someone should buy and try 
Also they have there number up give them a ring??

Never used those rocker arms but have but some of their other chinese stuff for my sbc 400 builds and it worked fine with no problems. Crap i bought--->Intakes, distributors, rockers, pulleys, water pumps...etc
I don't have any experience with thos rockers in particular, but I did purchase a knock off of the Yellow Terra's a while back. They actually looked pretty good, the bearings were tight and seemed to be fairly well made, but looks can be decieving. Upon mocking them up on the bench, the valvetrain geometry was WAY off and could not be easily corrected. I would say stay away unless you can find someone that has used them and can verify fitment.
I personally would stay away from all of that chinese knock-off stuff. Like fast01 said with his yella terra knock-offs that the valvetrain geometry was way off. I would think that those rockers would have the same issues if not more.
