Car is apart, which rocker arms? Harland Sharp, Yella Terra, or HS modded stockers?

Hey Bryan,
I have the new design YT. Got a good deal on them. Like I mentioned on CF, there was no noticeable difference on the dyno and no sign of float. But, they are much quieter than stock and that is what I was looking for.
If your wanting to save some money, stay with the stockers. The needle bearings are bathed in oil and exhibit very little wear so I wouldn't let that be a concern.

Ordered me some of the new Yella Terra's w/ no added weight over the vavle stem. They're under $400 on ebay from new era performance.
I was going to do the HS beefed up stockers, but those are almost $300, so I figured I'd spend the extra few bucks to get roller tips for a quiter valvetrain post cam.

Apparently the new YT design alleviates the "weight over the valvestem" issue of most aftermarket rollerized rockers.
