You can buy anything you want on ebay...

Correction: You can try to sell anything you want on ebay...

That said, I am somewhat guilty of doing this myself once. Bought a pair of running shoes that hurt my feet so much that I relegated them to the back of the closet after the 7th or 8th run. A runner friend suggested that I put them on eBay, so I did... got something like half of what I paid for used running shoes with 20-30 miles on them!

Used rocker arms are awesome! They're "seasoned" and broken in. Usually I have to pull them at the junkyard but it's easier if someone does it for me and offers them on eBay. You make way more power with the heat-treated/seasoned rocker arms. Also timing chains are too tight from the factory, you want worn-in timing chains for correct timing and reduced camshaft wear.

Thanks for the laugh!

Tight tolerances are for sissies.
