The stands and bolts were part of the package when we got them..
No need for them on LS , will bolt to the original stands fine.
As far as cam lift goes... there is no limit on the rotation... Not sure what you can do with the stock trunion.. Any experts out there for that one ??

I bought a set to put in my car...
the trunnion is bigger, the rollers/needles are contained in a carrier, and can't come loose; the carriers are pressed into the rocker; I would feel better if these had clips/retainers like the Comp Cams trunnion kit, but I suppose the bearings won't come loose from the rocker;
a few of them seemed to be a little jerky (to me anyway), so we cleaned them good (brake cleaner, compressed air) and soaked them in oil, that seemed to free them up;
my friend broke several stock rockers, so we put them in his car instead of mine, they seem to be good.

Damn it. Why I didn't see this thread sooner! I already bought some used rocker arms to put in the Comp Cam trunnion. Maybe I should consider this instead, at least they're brand new and assembled.
So they're manufactured by a GM supplier as stock replacement item, then do they've a GM part number? I'll still order from CarShopInc.COM just curious about this.

I'd like to know this too. Are these the new GM replacement rockers for our cars? Kinda like the LS2 timing chain. If so that's a great price and a no brainier as far as quality is concerned. This is probably what I'm going with, makes more sense than a rebuilt rocker. $200 is about the going rate for a vendor to rebuild your stock ones, and these are brand new.

I am not sure what to make of these things. I am inclined to just clean the grit out and use them, but I am apprehensive.
