I dont think I have ever heard of any luck with aftermarket rockers for LS1 cars?
Then again, I havent researched it enough, but it seems there is always a disaster right around the corner.

Not LS1 parts, but I've heard of some of their gen I rockers breaking.
SJ, what did you do? Drive a truck over a black cat, under a ladder, and through a warehouse full of mirrors? Rough luck, man.

Any man that came on his own face and then posted about it on the internet probably moved things along.

dude man you really do have the worst luck... i was going to go with scorpions originally but opted for ultra pro mags at last minute... from what iv read the scorpions had problems when they were first released, but the newer ones are supposed to be very reliable... sorry to see this though man i was hopen your car was going to be out and about maybe for the next meet... you ever think about going with a chromoly rocker instead of an aluminum one.... i would think they would be stronger... are stock rockers full roller though? are they even roller tip? i know stock lt1 rockers are complete ****..

Yeah, LS1 rockers are roller, but not roller tipped.
