Ok I have had the standard Modded ones from both and pushed the adjuster thread clean out a few times, I changed to the JPC with the roller ball adjuster and started to snap the ball end off, I have slightly modded the roller JPC ones fixed something else we wern't happy with and now done the Jambo ASPA shootout EFI track day plus some street driving and not broke one since, I feel from my exprience if you are breaking the rocker dont blame it the problem might be else where. With the JPC roller style they are good but not the be all, there is different style adjusters you can use,Maatouk used (in the 1 he gave me) a gemini style screw nothing to break how ever I chose not to use it and went a different way. just a hint off where to look Leman's cars run my type off adjuter expensive yes but if it can last 24hrs none stop racing can handle 8-10 sec's

I've noticed with the JPC rocker arms have a roller pivot. Wouldn't this help with the life(wear) of the valves & seats?? Plus they do look abit more ridged.
