Need a set of roller rockers for a sbf.3/8 studmount 1.6.

Question is...are scorpion rockers the same as those cheap pro comp ones they sell on ebay for like 115? I heard they're the same rocker just a different name and made by scorpion.Then again I've heard they're junk and a friend of mine had 3 bearings wore out in his in around 1000 miles.

What is a good rocker to use? Anyone have any for sale? Thanks

A lot of the Chinese parts are getting improved, if you are a CEO of a company in China and cause shame you are executed,not like here where CEO's can screw up a company and get severence pay and a bonus.

I just installed Comp Gold 1.6's. I got them from advice from a friend and I must say, even though I haven't fired up the engine, I am very impressed.
