Default What are you guys using for roller rockers?

Im needing to upgrade/replace my 1.6 Hotcam kit roller rockers. What are people using? I've been debating going with the promags, but are the hitech stainless worth the extra coin?

Also has anyone had any expierience with and other rockers? Im looking for something NSA.

I have aluminum SA proforms with mine, no problems here though most will probably say they're junk.

I've had GMPP and Pro Mags. GMPP are nice, but I like the Pro Mags better. I'm currently using Ultra Pro Mags and Hitech Stainless, both very nice.

I run These Not many people run them i dont think, but i have had good luck with them. If i was to build another engine id look towards the crane golds or promags. You arent going to have problems with any of them.
