SBI rocker shafts

[VF69HARDTOP]

Hi guys

Has anyone used SBI (SB International) rocker shafts for their LA small block? Is the quality fine or stay away?

Thank you

Where did you find them, are they an Ebay seller? The shafts look like they are for stamped steel hydraulic rockers.

Yeah, found them on Ebay Australia.
SBI are a US parts company but I'm not sure what the quality is like. I'll be using Lunati roller rockers on them.

That’s an EBay company. Most likely a Chinese knock off. They may work for a while

@Rocket had stainless shafts at one time.

SBI makes a lot of valvetrain parts. Rockers, springs, valve seats and guides are their big sellers.

S B International has been supplying machine shops for decades, for standard rebuilding, they supply reliable components.

Copy. Was trying to find them. With the amount of makeup name sellers on EBay and Amazon, sometimes it is hard to find who really sells / makes the items

Yes, an Ebay company selling them but seems many eBay sellers do sell the SBI brand.

So I'd be all good to use this brand then?
Not many options in Australia for shafts in stock without shipping ex USA

I'd prefer them with banana grooves.

I'll be getting them cut in new shafts.
No off the shelf options for that here in Australia, sadly

Aussie Speed, what's left of PP&R, Yellaterra, nobody like that has them? If not, Your plan is fine..

Cool. They really aren't critical with needle bearing rockers, but I'd do it anyway.
