CFR Roller Rockers?
I was wondering if anybody has heard of CFR Performance rockers? I am looking for 1.6 7/16... will these work? or are they junk? Also, what are the advantages/disadvantages of aluminum/stainless rockers?

I am trying to build an engine on a budget, but I'm not afraid to spend a little extra if something really is crucial. I will be using this on a 95 lt1 A4 /pacesetter longtubes/lt1 hotcam/2800 vigilante stall/catback exhaust/performance tune
Any info would be appreciated.

Generally speaking, but particularly speaking in terms of high performance parts, you get what you pay for. If you have ever seen the damage that can be caused by a rocker arm or roller lifter failure in a running engine you will be hyper-cautious about putting unknown parts into your motor.
I cannot speak directly to products sold by that vendor but I referenced the location and found it to be in the geographic area that is overwhelmingly populated by purveyors of merchandise imported from the Far East. Products are off-loaded from freighters at the ports of both Long Beach and Los Angeles and trucked (via thousands of cargo container haulers each day) to the area around the Ontario airport. The rockers in question are almost certainly made in China or Taiwan. While that point of origin doesn't necessarily directly correlate to product quality, it does lead to concerns regarding materials and manufacturing processes.
Bottom line: Buyer beware!!

Thank you
Thank you for your opinon. Even as a general answer, It was well thought out, and I hadnt considered the geographical angle. It figures that they could be a chinese piece of crap.
Anybody out there know of any decent roller rockers for a budget-minded project?
