I have spent the last hour or so reading posts on here about roller rockers. I want to put a set in my new setup to increase lift so I want to go with 1.8's or 1.85's I am looking at the Harland Sharps, SLP's and Yella Terras. Considering bang for the buck,overall quality, etc which ones would you guys go for? As far as I can tell, these 3 would all clear the stock valve covers, which is important to me. I don't mind spending the $$ for the more expensive ones if they are actually better. Just looking for opinions and suggestions.
Several years ago I was building my Buick 455 and had some roller rockers ordered from 1 of about 2 suppliers in the country who deal in Buick hi-po stuff. I had ordered from the supplier who had the more expensive price ($100 more) based on advertising. These 2 places slam each other constantly...."Beware of our competitors inferior products".........that kind of stuff. Anyways, long story short I found out that T&D makes them for both companies, the only difference is that when they come to the end of the line in the factory, one companies rockers get anodized blue and the ones for the other place get colored red. T&D told me that and they had no reason to lie.
Sorry for the rambling, I just don't want to spend the extra $$ if the quality is basically the same.

i used to have the slp's as well. i liked them the most since they install exactly like the stockers with no adjustments needed whatsoever. and i was running them with the 216-220 cam to.
