Any opinions on the adjustable 1.5 rockers for a 440 rpmheads

Comp magnums at minimum. Do not skimp on valvetrain.

I have had the stainless 1.5 PRW's on an RPM headed 440 street engine for a number of years with a xe275hl cam. I have had an adjuster break at the nut, the hardware supplied with the kit was crap. The geometry on the RPM worked out well, nice pattern on the valve. I have inspected them from time to time and they have looked fine, there has been some brass color on the shafts. I think they are different now from what I got so not sure if they are the same. I would use them again in a mild engine if they are the same. In saying that when I switch to TF240's and solid cam I will be using some HS arms.

Same as above, the rockers seems to be really good but i broke several adjuster screws so i ordered all new adjuster screws and lock nuts from comp cams and have not had any problems since. My cam is only a 510 lift tho, it you are going with a really high lift cam you may want to spring for a really good set of rockers.

I got sized half of the bushings ( front half of the engine ), BUT it seems I'm having oiling problems.

For the cost of the prws, its pinching pennies to not buy the superior product.
