I am really having trouble trying to locate roller rockers for my motor. I have been told that the roller tips are more reliable than the full rollers. Is this true? And where the hell do I buy a good set from? Im from Australia remember. Pleeeez help. I want more POWA! :)

Full rollers ARE roller tips. What you need is roller tips vs. solid ones. Buy Minispares' ones. Cheap, readily available and good.

I know that the tips are rollers but what about the shaft side? Rollers or bush better?

I just though the "full" bit refered to the rocker itself being on needle bearings rather than a bush?
