I was wondering if anyone has/are using the Harland Sharp roller rockers? I ordered a set the other day. I hope I made the right choice. Thanks

Procomp and some of the other chinese stuff you have to be careful with. I have never ran the HS rockers but have also not heard negative stuff either. Seems like he helped create the roller rocker or something else is credited to his name. Been around a long time and I think you will be okay!

On another web site I have seen nothing but good comments. Good many LS people use them.

I have some 1:6 ratio. I've been running them since 2001. I don't put alot of miles on my truck but i've had no problems.

Ran them on a NO2 motor no problems.

prostreetC-10 · 02-10-2011, 05:41 PM

Well this should all be making you feel pretty good!

Harland Sharp is the father of dependable roller rockers. He did the original R&D on roller tip and high lift rockers 20 years before anyone else. You made a very good choice in buy his rockers.

Yes, this does make me feel alot better. I got them at a alright price I think. $242.00 shipped to the door. The summit brand was going to be 198.00 so I spent the extra money and got what I wanted. Anyone know how much more power they will add?

Ran the pi$$ out of them on a 13:1 SBC dirt track motor...never had an issue.

jay6891 · 02-10-2011, 09:59 PM

I have had them on my engine for eight years. 7/16" 1.6 ratio, no problems ever.
