The only thing I can complain about with the comp cams trunnions is that they sent me one trunnion that was too small. The rest were fine.

They are fine. People have had problems with them and the trunion getting galled, but they won't spill needle bearings, so it's a cheap, worthwhile upgrade. If you end up getting galling on the bearing, the next option is to move to the CHE Bronzed Bushed bearing. It's $440 tho vs the $130 for the Comp...

Don't know about the Summit trunions, but a few years ago I bought a Summit brake proportioning valve. When it arrived, I took the sticker off of it & it was a Wilwood part.

O.P. I have been installing comps trunion on every cam swap for almost a year now and not a single rocker arm issue. Pay attention when installing them, you can **** it up if your not careful.

The PN is 85427.

Lunati uses new GM rockers and installs the trunions in them. I got them when the price was like $260. Now they are over $400.

At 260, with new GM rockers, it was a no-brainer. Now, I'd just get the Comp kit for 130.
