Default Rockers

I've had Harland Sharp rollers on my ls7 heads for over 2 years and no problems. Cam lift is almost .650

I think they were around $500

Yeah theyve been on there since July of last year. I have PRC .675 springs too which are rated at 490lbs @ .675 so the rockers see plenty of pressure and lift. I check them every few weeks but I've had no issues yet even after a few hpde and plenty of top end runs. Guess thats why ive taken my sweet time to do the trunions. Its all about having the right valvetrain geometry.
