I would like to know as well. I hear you need taller valve covers to use them though.

I have been running the adjustable shaft mounted rocker for about 5mo. with no problems. Seem to be built very well, they are a tad bet heavy compared to a friends Jessel's (my opinion from handeling both) but are built well. I did ditch the hardware that comes with the kit (bolts that hold the shaft to the stand and bolts that hold the stand to the head) because the 12pt heads seem to have been messed up. I could get a socket on some others I couldn't, and the ones that I could broke before getting them tq'd down, but no biggie. Performance wise I haven't had any trouble, working perfect.
