is that 170 for the full set?

found a set of these fairly cheap, are they any good?

SLP 1.85 LS1/LS6/LS2 50185 Rocker Arms

got a set of ls1 rocker arms for $50 with 20,000 on them figured that was a good enough deal. Figured out the rest of what im going to do wit hit for the most part also.

Anyone on here port heads? They need cleaned up and everything and the shop wants to charge $140 to do them so i might as well see how much it is to just get them cleaned and ported.

If I were going to change my rocker ratio I would for sure to with the SLP 1.85 rockers because they are modeled after the stock ones which is a good design for fatigue resistance as well stability, bc don't get me wrong I like think rollers are much better friction wise, but I like the linear motion style of the stockers just makes me feel better lol.

I disassembled the stock trunnion setup from my stock rockers in about 15 minutes yesterday for all [16] and installed the Comp trunnion in one rocker this morning at coffee break (took about 3 minutes because I was being very careful). As long as you have access to an arbor press (I guess a bench vise would work, but I wouldn't really recommend it) this kit is a easy-peasy deal to handle yourself.
