Default Yet another RR question

I'm looking for a set of 1.7rr's for my 93 LT1. I ordered a set of Scorpion's yesterday but they called me back and said that they are out of stock and don't know when they can get anymore. It's turning out to be harder to get these then I thought so If I can't find some I may just end up with 1.6's.
Now as for my question -- Will the rockers for an LS1 work on the LT1's? I'm finding 1.7's for the LS1's easy enough but I'm not sure if they would work.

Looks like you'll have to get your lift from a cam instead....
Shouldn't be that difficult.

Or so goes the theory. Even a "custom" cam can only be made out of the existing lobes that they have already made. If they don't already have the profile you want then you're just up a creek. Comp cams will make the cam I want for something like $1500

No thanks.

Hmm, I don't remember asking about a cam. But hey thanks for your imput. It was so helpful.

Thank you Nathan for answering I figured that you would know and I was hoping that you would chime in.
