They won't put them on the website until they have enough inventory built up. Shouldn't be too long, though...

I was told they will have some in stock in the next month or so, and are working on getting them with CHE bushings. I heard they were $579.

Your case, Pay $400 for CHE Bushings in stock rocker arms.

TSP will offer Roller Tip Rocker Arms with CHE bushings installed for around $600.

Smith Brother/Straub offers Bronze Bushing Trunnions for stock rocker arms for $160. I don't know how good the quality is compared to CHE, but it cant be much different.

I am pretty sure most would go with TSP and their roller tip rocker arms

CHE bushings are......impressive......against any competition.

But I gotta agree 100%.....with the TSP being roller tipped and the OEMs NOT being roller tipped, the TSPs will definitely have the edge in most people's eyes!

My only question for TSP would be; 'what is the max recommended lobe lift for their rockers'.....

I just seen today on TSP's Facebook, they now offer CHE Trunnion kits for $199. Well if my Smith Brothers Bronze Trunnions ever wear out, I know were to go to for some more.

The Trunnion and Bushings look amazing. Cant wait to get the TSP Roller Tip Rockers with CHE Trunnions.

You are providing bushing replacements in stock rockers. We are offering a completely new design utilizing a roller tip. Not the same thing.


For everyone else....We will be offering our rockers with needle bearing trunions as well as CHE floating bushing kits.

The weight difference over the nose vs a stock rocker is only 8 grams
This makes this one of, if not the lightest aftermarket roller rocker available. Plus with it being made from steel it will be much stronger than the aluminum counterparts.

Price for the needle bearing rocker kit is $549.99. The price for the CHE kits is $649.99.

We currently offer the kits for cathedral and LS3 style rockers. LS7 and LT will be about a year away. We currently have LS3 rockers in stock. Feel free to call us at 512-863-0900. Supplies are limited so we are not putting them on the site or we may over sell what we have.

FYI, those rockers did not leave here packed like that. Though we are packaging them much tighter so it can't get knocked around as bad by UPS.

Lonnie

They are currently only offered in 1.72 for cathedral and LS3 style. When the LS7 version comes out it will be 1.82 (not interchangeable). We do not have any plans of offering a higher lift rocker at this time.

Lance,

With all due respect as a potential customer I have NO IDEA what parts/services you actually do provide.

TSP and others have a pretty good grip on marketing themselves, and their products and services (and God knows I won't bow to or buy into any one vendor without doing my research (don't believe the hype)) and coexist well. It is hardly fair to call anyone out publicly for being accessible and pushing the envelope.

It might be time to step back from the tech forums and get your business model sorted out; or don't.
