Default ebay alert...SHANNONS ENGINEERING

do not buy the roller rockers from shannons engineering...there is a reason they cost $179...popped a valve cover over today to inspect thing and found two rockers just laying there...broke two bolts off in the head. called and talked to them and all they want to do is send me two new bolts to fix the problem. I would advise against running these rockers and just spend the extra bucks to buy some nice ones...they were smartasses and tried to place the blame on tyler and i...DO NOT DO BUSINESSS WITH...

That kind of sucks. Maybe just find some grade 8 bolts and reinstall them? At least the rockers themselves didn't fail.

Ha, I know those ******. The name is highly feared in the land of 10K lakes. Too bad you didn't ask before buying these, I could have steered you clear away from those clowns.

RE: SHANNONS ENGINEERING. Phantom: Your mad because you purchased a cheap set of Chinese rockers. You get what you pay for. If you would have bothered to ask, Shannon would have recommended Harland Sharp. The fault lies w/the manufacturer. Not the seller. He tried to make it right, by replacing the broken parts,(its a business not a charity) He no longer offers those rockers, after finding out what poor quailty they are. What more do you want? Know the part before you buy, or ask about the product if you dont know. I have purchased from Shannons Engineering. I highly recommend them. Shannon takes the time to make sure you get what you want. We are HIGHLY satified w/ the cam he designed and Will purchase from again. Call Shannons Engineering and talk to him, He knows how to build an engine! 320-274-5278 or 320-209-8693
