Roller Rocker Help!

ALright, so I decided to look into getting Roller Rockers. I have a stock '87 Coupe. Help me out if I am wrong here. I am planning on getting 1.6 ratio;3/8inch stud size;aluminum;full rocker;self aligning. I just want to make sure that if I get these roller rockers then I will need no other modifications to make them work. Thankyou.

You will need non self aligning rockers if you plan to use the existing hardware on your heads. Valve seals and fresh springs make the journey worthy.

Oh, and most likely, you will need to remove the drip tabs from the valve covers and possibly some material from the bolt towers.

I went with the Comp Cams chrome molly rockers.

Their advertising says they are stronger and lighter than AL.

I don't know, but I figure you can't go wrong with Comp Cams.
