I've ran Harland Sharps in my drag applications. Great rocker. Whatever rocker you get make sure to do some prelimary checks that should always be done with a roller rocker to help with longevity. Make sure to check that you have the correct pushrod length. If your not familur with how to do that there is a tool that can be bought at most racing parts warehouses for about 10 bucks and you drop it in like a normal pushrod. Put some machinest die on the valve tip turn the engine over by hand a couple rotations then pull the rocker and check the tip. Your going to want a line in the middle of the tip. Once you get it correct measure the then of the tool that you have it adjusted to then order your pushrods.
best roller rocker??

I will buy nothing but Harland Sharp. They are life time guarantee and at most major race events. They have saved my butt
on two occasions - once when I wasn't even using their equipment and let me continue racing. Fantastic customer service and has gone as far as drop shipping an order for me. HARLAND SHARP

I had Harland Sharps but I really didnt care for them. I took them off put Comp Cams Ultra Pro Magnum on. They are a more superior rocker. I build engines for a living and have seen multiple aluminum rockers fail overtime. I have yet to have any issue with the Comps Ultra Pro Mags.
Hi i have used the SS rocker from pro comp and have no problems with them.

ProForm rockers in you big block? I was considering these for mine but I hear nothing but horror stories. Good to know people have success with them.larryo454 said:
I would not use the ProComp rockers. They actually machine the hole for the studs too big and there is excessive slop. And Ive seen them actually snap ARP rocker studs. and this was in 300-600hp applications.
Also if you compare a Harland Sharp to a Proform Aluminum they are identical. And Ive seen the Proform ones actually bend in the center.

I used a set of the Crane Gold Race rockers on my SBC for several years, still holding up. I've seen them at Summit recently for about $350. They probably make them for you engine,too. I just built a new engine, a 434 with all the goodies and used the Crower 1.8 stainless shaft rockers. Those things look indestructible.
I don't know if you're still looking but I had a set of Crane Gold Race rockers for a long time on one engine and they just got moved to another engine. The engine I'm running now has Crower Stainless shaft type rockers in 1.8:1. They are a thing of beauty. The can make the in any ratio you want with any offset.
