The second set does look like modified stock rockers. “4150 Chromoly rocker arms are light and strong for high speed operation. Valve train uses all standard high performance camshafts for 1.1:1 ratio rockers. 4v heads do not require high lift and ratio rockers. Lower rockers open lower valves, push on upper rockers which operate upper rockers.” |

For 4400.00 you can do a Subaru wrx Turbo conversion with 300 HP and 16 valve heads are stock. Just a comparsion so no need for a AC/WC debate please. |

Looks like more crap to break to me. And lots of valve train resistance. |

Wonder if you could just bolt on a set of subaru heads and a timing belt and go. I think it would last longer.  Alot of leaverage on those rocker shafts. |

I saw a thread a couple years ago on ShopTalkForums ( I think) from a machinist in the UK who did that. Very interesting to follow, he made it work but only got about 200 hp out of it. |
