Default Vortec roller rockers

I found these roller rockers on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/PRW-0835002-S.../dp/B004BTB4EC and I wonder if anyone has an experience with them. They are inexpensive, and seem like a good deal, but I just wanted to know what you thought. Thanks!

These are PRW's Sportsman series roller rockers. They do have a wide variety of full roller rockers as well as the roller tip rockers. The Sportsman series is a step above their Power Plus Nitro-Carb Steel Rocker Arms.

If you do a search you'll find that PRW's get mixed reviews. They are made in China also so that may be where some of the negativity comes from. Jegs carries them as well as some of the other major vendors.

Good luck... GUSTO

I guess it's good to know that they have a lower-quality line of products. I will probably regret buying cheap parts, but it is tempting.
