i have the prw stainless rockers, but the roller tips are not round internally, i think a few other people have had the same problem.
i have just ordered the crower stainless steel rockers because i am not going to loose my engine because of average quality parts, you get what you pay for is so true, so buy quality to start with.

X2. It would ultimately depend on the lobe, spring pressure, rpm, etc. In my opinion, if it is an aggressive solid roller with over 500lbs. open then I would go with a good stainless rocker. As far as the less expensive rockers out there, it's understandable to want to save some money so just like anything else, look them over before you install them and consider how aggressive your valvetrain is.

Good luck on your build!

hate to sound stupid, but, what are prw stainless rockers?

PRW is a company that has their name on a lot of parts just like Crower, Crane, Comp, etc... Usually a fair product at a good price.

I've been running a set of Crane Gold 1.65 aluminum rockers since the mid 80's, and currently have about 675 pounds over the nose. If the quality is good, I don't see where it matters that much on whether they are aluminum or steel. For anything up to and including a hydraulic roller or mild solid roller, I'd probably buy a set based on who has the best price.

I've seen defective rockers lately that shouldn't have made it out the door not only from the bargain companies, but the high end ones as well. We caught the problem by just looking them over before bolting them in place. It seems like everyone has eliminated their quality control people.

I bought my PRWs from SD when i did my stroker 4 yrs ago and have about 5k on them and many repeated abuse sessions. No issues with them.
Doing some up-grades ,got some 1:65s from Ace at a great price.

so would someone be disappointed by buying these stainless steel rockers from ace.
they are stainless,(which is durable). plus i've heard he sells quality parts.
plus the price is right. half the price of a crower.
