I have the 1014 Scorpions on my truck. 990 heads, .703" lift Herbert cam and good pushrods/guide plates. No complaints after 3 seasons of 7000 rpm shifts. They replaced a set of unknown brand rockers that were wore smooth out. You must check the rocker to valve spring clearance and verify the wear pattern on the valve stem.

I was facing the same decision a few months ago. Ended up going with Crower Endure series.

Thanks for the info, the race shop that built my engine told me they havent had any problems with scorpion so thats what i went with. I know there not the only one, but made in the USA still means something to me.

That's one of the reasons I used them, also. Good luck.

Had a set of scorpions on my SBC, they were bulky and hit my valve covers. They were also noisy. Switched them out for a set of Harland Sharps.

We ran these on the modifieds for 11-12 years. Zero issues. I have a set in my truck now. I couldn't, tell you if their loud. Between the should roller cam and flowmaster hush powers with no insulation on the floor . Can't tell what's making noise,everything is loud. :devil:

Are you talking about the Scorpions or the Comp Cams roller rockers?

Sorry, Scorpions.
