So what is the final word on the best, or safest rocker trunion kit in the aftermarket? The price difference in not in question since after you buy the install kit for the summit brand they're just about the same price. If you don't have experience with either kit please don't respond, I don't want to hear about what so and so told you. Or is there even a different company than the two of these with a better set up? thanks

Other than piece of mind that the factory ones aren't going to fall apart and go through the motor, has anyone noticed less valvetrain noise with any of these kits?

I think im leaning towards the BTR set, I could be wrong but I would think a smaller company like that would take great pride in their product and have more attention to detail.

We've been doing these upgrades since 2011 with zero failures and 100 percent success.

I'd like to hear from Brian Tooley about how his trunnion kit is better and if the steel is better. I know Harland Sharp says that there trunnions are for serious racing applications only. Does this mean they are not as durable as the OE GM rockers?

Ask him? Chances him seeing this are slim.

BTR Kit or the CHE Bushed upgrade (which is $450 sending in your rockers).
I have the Lunati version. But they include new rockers with them. But the price was $250 when I did that. Now they are over 450. Your rockers are most likely fine, so the BTR kit would be the most cost effective way to do it.

I've got the Comps and so far, so good. Never heard of any negatives when I was buying them. I actually race my car; probably have over 50 runs on them with no problems.

I have Comps too and I'm about to install new springs, so I'd like to hear from Tooley about this. If his trunnion kit is better, I'll buy it and replace the Comps when I do the springs. His kit gives no indication of being better and looks the same as the Comps or Summit Racing trunnions.
