I put the Crane Golds on and love them...Seamed as though the bottom end power perked up a bit, but maybe I was just happy as hell, that the tapping was gone...Which was the original reason I tried them, over the stockers...

Peace...Gman

The Jesel adjustable rockers are the best available rockers. The geometry sets up great and they are very reliable. A standard set is 1400 and you can go up from there with other features they offer.

I also installed a set of Crane Gold Series and the tapping is history. I too feel as though the bottom end is snappier. Still have some noise but the annoying tapping is gone. Only half the price of the Jesel according to the above post. I got new Roller rockers, guide plates, screw in studs, and hardened pushrods with the kit. Very pleased so far.

I have J2K's and feel that they are the best . Bryan@LME what other options can you get with J2K's , I have the shotpeened rocker body , needle bearing roller tip , and the 5/16 cup adjuster . I know I can upgrade to the 3/8 or the 5/16 ball adjuster but mine came standard with the above mentioned features . I'm extremely happy with them , I just had to purchase the stand height setup tool .
