Any onw use WYSCO Roller Rockers?

They're relatively cheap, wonder if they are made good? Can never trust the advertising.

$118 on flea bay. Search wysco 23021. Looks like a Chinese rip-off of Comp Hi-Tech rockers. I think I'd put stamped steel rockers back in before I'd put Chinese needle bearings in my engine.

Sh***t, the Crane nitro hardened stamped rockers cost that much! IMHO, the only roller rocker worth anything is a Comp Magnum.

I like my Harland Sharp full rollers... AFR recommended them saying they were slightly better balanced that the Pro-Magnums... price seemed right too... but thats just my opinion...

Thats an extremely narrow viewpoint.
Many companies make much better rockers than Comp Magnums.

Point well taken Driveshaft, how about I rephrase that and say at a minimum run a high quality rocker, maybe something like a Comp Magnums or Norris rollers or you'll be picking out little needle bearings from your oil pan.

Chromemolly or Stainless steel only in my motors and NOTHING CHINESE! like the Fleabay rollers. Comp Cams Pro Magnums are very good products.

Good choice.
Harland sharp has been around forever with very few issues.
They are the best of the budget full roller rockers IMO.

DING! DING! DING!

We have a winner!

Only a rich man can afford to use cheap parts since he can cover the cost of a rebuild when the parts crap out.

Comp Pro Magnum, Harland Sharp and Crane Golds.

Unless you want to step up to Jesels or T&D
