I occasionally visit V8TV's website to view their videos and I came across a couple of vids that I thought I'd pass along, the first is in reference to compcams roller rockers for Fords, the second video shows how Strange makes 9inch Ford rearends.

Those rockers are pretty cool, it seems to eliminate the need for custom pushrods.

In a word: No.

Although those allow for minor adjustment to a pedistal rocker, if your geometry is grossly off this would not give proper geometry. I am not saying that these are not good rockers and valuable for situations where the geometry is close... just that if the geometry is too far off you could not compensate for incorrect pushrod length using these without altering the angle of the rocker arm.
