Roller rocker debate
I am finishing up my 489s. Cam is .547 .547 112lsa 230/236 with eq 320 heads. My debate is what rockers to go with. I am looking at comp pro magnums, harland diamonds, and scorpion marine. Also up in the air on 1.7 vs 1.8 or even a combo of both. Whats your take??

Go with the Comp Ultra Pro Magnum Rockers. They are better than aluminum rockers for the following reasons- Better fatigue resistance, rebuildable, lighter over the nose, less bulky, and I'm sure a few other good reasons. Also the price will be on par with the better aluminum rockers.
On my old engines I broke a Crane Gold and I didn't have that many hours on the rockers. My new engines have the Comp Stainless Steel rockers, which are no longer available. Either way after my experience with Golds and what I've discussed with a few guys, I'll never run aluminum rockers again!

What ever OP does just stay away from the import 125.00 set of rockers. I wouldn't recommend those to anyone. Amazing how many of those big hp engines you see on the net selling cheap use all those components though. Buyer looks at price and power. Not cool. OP your cam is on the small side but should help save your drive among other things. You propping for 5200-5400.
