I use what Tony described. You can spend some time with the grinding stones 
following Kas' instructions and after 2-3 beers you'll have a nice set of 
rocker arms. 

I've often wondered how the shaft holds up over time with the roller rocker 
needle bearing setup. Seems like oil fed bushing (stock setup) spreads the load 
to the shaft way better than needle bearings.
