Did you decide to go with something different GregI ? Also, are they any stronger than stock? I plan on running a cam at least the as big as yours, and I really don't want to have the same issues that you did.

Basically, I broke both an intake and an exhaust at the fulcrum. These have a much heavier duty fulcrum. Do a search for pics, they look great.

I'm hoping my rockers hold up. Not running too much spring pressure on a mild cam, so things should work out. But I would love to have a set of the Harland Sharpes rebuilt rockers for assurance.

Even stockers (ls1's) break. The thought of loose metal in your motor is good enough reason to pony up the $ to get them. Not a lot of money, and that insurance goes a long way.

Check with Cary @ ETP- I believe Yella Terra is close with a new design.
