PREDATOR-Z

Has anyone or any sponsors got any feedback to give on those?

Apparently, they are 1/2 shaft, interlocking, roller tipped.
They allow the use of different length valves without geometry headaches.
And best of all, "should" fit under stock valve covers.
(I say should, because we all know this is not always true)

That is what I'm trying to gather, more info. I read an article in CHP where they have advertised their release, no web site just Curtis address and phone #.
Just trying to see if anyone here or any sponsors have tested them yet.

Here is the Chevy High Perf. blurb. I've done some searching with google and it looks like the company at one time had a web site, but it is a dead link now. I've been waiting for more info on these too.

They seem to be similar to the Yella-Terra rockers. That is, like a roller rocker however the shaft is fixed on a pinned stud. In the Yella Terra case, this prevents the shaft from rotating, therefore eliminating guideplates.

That said, having a hole in the center for the stud does nothing for the strength of the rocker. Normal shaft rockers have a base bolted to the head, and the shaft(s) are supported to the sides of the rocker. There for the rocker is solid on the top and bottom.

For the LS1, Yella-Terra joins two rocker shafts together for stability:


People have said the stock rockers are pretty good. So, I would probably only change them to go to real shafts or to change ratio.

Actually, they look exactly! like the Comp Pro Mags... even the little square emboss on the pushrod tail.

That's what i was thinking, just without the interlocking shafts. They probably outsourced the bodies or something.

They maybe similar but not the same. Take a closer look at both of them.

No, they are definately not exactly the same. The Comp's look beefier. Still, VERY similar.
