Without going into great detail about each here is general info.

Stud Girdle - pretty much how it sounds, it helps keep the rocker studs from moving or flexing

Hydra Rev kit - for use with hydraulic lifter, it applies spring pressure to the lifter body to allow for the use of a weaker valve spring and help prevet lifter collapse at higher rpms http://www.airflowresearch.com/pages/hydra_rev.htm

Shaft rocker - This completly replaces you current rockers and studs with a rocker shaft the rides through the center of the rocker. Good for high rpm applcations, solid rollers

Hope this helps
