    Well I don't do best for the buck... I'm running Crowers now (pat's suggestion). I was running comp magnums until one busted at the trunion... Both are steel not aluminum

    crower are very good there other makes out there that work ok to scorpoin/howards .cranegolds/lunati as well as the harland sharps hold up well the crower would be not a cheap rocker but are very nice for a stud mounted rocker arm the others i have used to .your going to want to do a mild lift check for the right size push rods

    I've run the Crane golds but these are forged stainless from Crower and are much tougher .............
