Ok, as I am changing many things on the engines, right after I bought my Scorpion rockers many guys started going more for the Comp or Crower stainless, I can get good pricing so I will probably change, but is it really worth the cost?
what are opinions on Aluminum VS the stainless??

Last winter I wanted to replace my Crane Gold Rockers. They were nowhere to be found anywhere. I decided to go with the Comp Ultra pro mag XD rockers. Glad I did. I like them, I like the steel body, big fulcrums, and the geometry was good with them.
The Crowers are available with different backsets, if you really wanna fine tune your geometry. They are also a really nice piece.
I also added stud girdles, which I think are a nice option. Esp if you are one to run your stuff. If you're gonna put around at 3000 all day, I wouldn't worry about them.

imo the stainless crower is hard to beat,i used them on a 7500 rpm drag engine for years and never had a problem.the comp steel ones look good to me but i have not yet used any so i can,t say much about them.if the price is right i may be a buyer for your scorps.

I don 't think the scorpions are bad but given how hard I do run the boat and I am into them again I think now would be the time to upgrade them, I will see what I paid for the Scorpions and get a price, most likely changing.. normally I do about 60% of new cost when parts are good shape. let me see
