And that's just one example, from the dozen.

You don't mention anything about your camshaft, but my guess is you'd be better of with a set of ductile irons.

If you really want to run a cheap roller rocker, look at these:

They got some good reviews on moparstyle and are bushed, adjusters are supposed to be better quality now.

But they are more expensive than the better ductile irons.

If you still want to run the proform rockers I suggest ditching the adjusters immediately and get some good ones from smith bros for example.

I had the PRW stainless steel ones on my last stroker wedge,they worked perfect. The thing I really like about those is that you can use stock style pushrods.
68 Charger R/t white with black v/t and red tailstripe. 440 4 speed ,black interior
68 383 auto with a/c and power windows. Now 440 4 speed jj1 gold black interior .
My Charger is a hybrid car, it burns gas and rubber............

They don't look the same to me, the writing on the rocker and the adjusters are different.
Plus the ebay-kit has the standard mopar hold-downs, prw-kit has machined hold-downs.

found a prw rocker set for a decent price aluminum ones, not stainless.  theyre 1.6 ratio, with those rockers and my cam the lift will be 593in 615ex, think that much lift wil make too much spring pressure and crack them?
