got a new cam and head coming from EB and I need new rocker arms. Didnt really find much help searching and what rockers to get. Ive seen two different versions on ebay, Topline $99, and "Japanese made" $149. I havent checked with the Dealership yet about OEM. Both come w/tappets & adjusters. What would you get?

Topline has good products IMHO, all my engines are running with Topline something or others in them (no rockers though). The "Japanese Made" rockers sound like one of JFE's deals. LOL Whatever brand he has a deal on that week is what Toyota used originally! Avoid like black death if thats the case. Topline is gaining more respect in the aftermarket and is grabbing a greater percentage of the market yearly. Good parts! And the the adjuster screws being included is like a "yeah buddy" bonus! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

>>>*Most of Topline's parts are excellent. But the rockers we got from them were less than successful for us. Even though most worked just fine, a 5% failure rate was way too high.

We discontinued about 2 years ago.

I will suggest you purchase OEM or reface the stock ones if you can...*EB
