Default New Product - RAS rocker arms for small block Mopar

Hi all,
I have been in contact in the last few months with Gary from Rocker Arm Specialst (RAS), getting updates on the progress of these.
They are finally ready. These are brand new design bullet proof stainless steel rocker arms. Those of you who know their 440S Roller models, probably know that this should be an excellent product.
The features are:
Investment cast 17-4 Stainless
1.5 or 1.6 Ratios
SAE 93200 Bronze Bushings
Tool Steel Pin and Roller
Hard chromed thick wall Shafts
Heavy Duty Steel Hold Downs
Aluminum Spacers
5/32 Radius Cup or Ball Adjusters

Racer's net $850

Now, the only thing that might resemble these are the old discontinued Norris rocker arms (which sell for $600-700 used, if you can find them). However, these have superior oiling to the rollers, pins, adjusters, springs.
If you need longetivity, you know that aluminum bodied rocker arms are not the hot ticket. Also the RAS rockres are bushed, and only have a roller tip (not main body), so the possible risk of a main body needle bearing spilling its guts inside your engine is eliminated.

I am not affilated with RAS, I was just waiting for this proudct to become available (I want to spend money on valve train once), and thought I would share the news with the Mopar community.
So for more details please contact:

RAS sent me these pics. Note that the spacers on this first set are not anodized, but the rest will be.

If they only made them for "offset heads", like Indy 440-1 and perhaps some others, they would have a lot fo new clients. Those rockers are pretty pricey, and people who buy their heads for 899$ propably aren't that eager to spend more for the rockers. But people with 2000$ heads and already expensive valvetrains might be. I know I would.
