OK, so I was looking at these online the other day. Just had a whim, sorta....

Until I looked at the price. $689.00? Really?!
Now, if these were forged steel pieces or something, I could understand. But I never had any issues with a street motor and standard stamped steel rockers. And to trade that for billet aluminum...doesn't get me a good feeling. Other than being lighter (reduced valve train inertia), what, exactly, are you getting on a street motor for your seven hundred lettuce leaves...really?
Anyone have any horror stories to share as to why a street motor would need these, or is this just more 'fluff'?
