I have seen them and they are really nice, craftsmanship is excellent. one of our members had them at show and tell at our weekly luncheon. WIsh I had the money.

From Len on May 25, 2013:
Here is a photo of my roller rocker arms.
Used only with the longer rocker shaft.
Bronze shaft bushing, roller tip.
Uses customers adjusting screw.
$ 475. + shipping.

This came with the above image. He was working on a setup for short rocker shafts. Bud
FYI, I have no interest in Len's sales, just passing info that's come my way. Bud

Here's an image from Len of just a roller rocker arm. Bud

John, less friction, less valve guide / valve stem wear, & a much stronger, less likely to break rocker arm than the O.E.M rocker arms.
A state of the art upgrade.

As someone who has never broken a rocker, I would be interested to hear how many have. I think Len's product is excellent and I plan to order; I'm just curious.

Len, I am curious if they are steel or aluminum. The top pic looks like steel but bottom anodized arm is probably aluminum.

Thanks,

Tom,

I've broken two - both times it was when the guide seized the valve stem in the up position. No where for the rocker to go.
