harland sharp are some of the best.  My Crane Golds have been
very reliable for 12 years.
72 Cuda, owned 25 years. 496, with ported Stage VI heads, .625 in solid roller, 254/258 at .050, 3500 stall, 3.91 rear. 850 Holley DP, Reverse manual valve body.

1999 Trans Am, LS1, heads, cam, headers, stall, etc! Love to surprise the rice rockets with this one. They seem so confident, then it's "what the heck just happened?"

for the street my first choice was the Iron non roller rockers , Crane used to have them in different ratios & I used a lot of those . ROller tip I still prefer the Stainless over Alum , , Prw , Comp , and a couple of others offer these , Comp only has 1.5 ratio  though .
 In Alum I prefer bushed rockers over needle brg , I would hate to fish stry needle brgs out of an engine ! also they have a far smaller surface area on needles & I have seen badly worn shafts because of this , only the .002 of the needle brg surface touches the shaft on maybe 4-6 rollers taking all the load .
