    You don't have to get new ones. But there are some that end up loosing their bearings. I went with the new Yella Terra's. They are a very nice rocker and actually seem to make a little HP. At least on mine, it was making a little more before I spun the clutch on the dyno.

    New Era Performance is where I got them. How much HP? Don't really know. I'd say 5-8rwhp or so.

    You don`t need aftermarket rockers . The stockers are fine .
