Sure Crower makes them. When I ordered my set, the retailer mistakenly ordered them for me.

I am just lucky enough to have the Summit and OEM w/reunion upgrade at arms length!
Maybe someone else can chime in....

I think you need to get the dash number from them for the offset before ordering. Their support is terrific.

Too much weight as in total weight of the car or of the valvetrain? they dont move up except on the axis which is staionary and the resistance is set by the springs. Im sure maybe some how the aluminum would be better just dont think the weight of a fulcrum is reallyu going to make a huge difference but the rigidity would probably be a must have with forces coming ffrom both sides?

you're responding to a 4 year old thread, but he meant too much weight over the tip of the valve. MOI, and all that jazz. Could potentially cause instability in the system, much more flex in the pushrods (which could also lead to lofting), and such.

what kind of rpm are you running this to? Are you seeing any evidence of flex with the stud mounted setup? Seem pretty stable?
