So your saying you know a few people who had billet and modded ones from other companies but had failures and as such are now using maatouks rockers without issue?

What seat pressure do you run, as when i went through my exhaust valve saga the seat pressure i was quoted to use with the setup, my mate(who built my motor) thought where way over the top and would smash everything in the valvetrain to pieces
i was quoted 200lb, we settled on 150lb
he though the 3 main points to cause damage on the jpc rollers would be:
1.excessive spring pressure
2.incorrect sweep or contact point at the valve tip
3. excessive tappet clearance
thoughts.....?
