The question of roller rockers came up on another list. The consensus was that the Harland Sharp / Dove rockers were OK for street performance use. Someone had specifically asked about the Crane Gold which are about 1.5 times the price. I don't have any first hand knowledge but several people claimed to be using them for years with no problems in 6000 rpm street/strip engines.
