Probably in an Empi package.. not sure if they aren't all from the same place to begin with either way you
look at it..

With those swivel heads.. if you don't pay attention when installing making sure the flat area is against the stem - it will cause a problem..

I've been thinking for the a while now those are really best when used with steel/cromo pushrods.
and set to a snug/loose zero... they are much quieter that way..

I run the old elephant feet adjusters on mine.. some people like them and some not so much.. haven't had a problem yet on my end... so not sure of that answer as a whole..
