Default Harland Sharp guys inside please

I broke a HS rocker about a week ago. I daily drive my car and luckily, a buddy happened to have one that I could throw on my car. Question is, how the hell did this happen? Bad casting is the only thing that makes sense.
The rockers have been on for 28000 miles. All but maybe 2000 of these miles have been put on in the last year. I very seldom drive the car hard as I'm afraid to break it and this. WTF

Can you explain where the break occurred or even better post a picture of the broken rocker?

Yeah, post a pic if you can. I have 3 sets on different engines and no troubles yet...

Maybe send the broken piece back to HS and see what they say, or at least give them a call.
