Default Cosworth cam followers

Hi people!
Do anyone have experience with aftermarket hydraulic cam followers for sierra cossie, I found some more than twice cheaper than genuine parts on ebay, here they are http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-COSWORTH-...1%7C240%3A1318
Whats their quality? or shall I stick to genuine parts?

INA make the oe ones that ford use, I don't think they are too bad price wise, around Ł70 I beleive.
I have used pattern hydraulic tappets in the past in most things, but is it worth the chance.
I had an idea to contact some people via mail on ebay who have bought these and ask them, you can get the details from feedback.

Yeah I contacted people who bought the cheaper ones, they are 30 pounds only. seller says like they are tested and good, but you know seller is a seller
Still waiting for replys, a guy who bought valves and guides from same shop and running a big spec was the only who replied and was happy
