Nope, I only keep links to vendors. The tests I know of are from what I've read in a couple of books and magazine articles. I suppose you could Google them.....or ignore my statements altogether.....

Perhaps......but then, you did state that your next rocker set may be steel rockers.....so go figure.

I've had the aluminum rockers since 2005. The new Comp rockers were not out then. I asked my builder what they recommended when this short block was done and they said to go with the Gold Racing rockers. I can't argue with those who build everything from LTx to Pro Mod engines for a living.
One of the key reasons why the new Comps are being considered is the clearance they have for larger springs, as well as their claim of being as light or lighter. I tried the Googles and came up with nothing, therefore I'll go ahead and ignore your claim.
