Default Roller rockers/ springs with vortech S/C

Hi Guys Im thinking of adding roller rockers because since my car is 15 years old im sure the valve springs are weak. No good for a supercharged engine. I want to go with a good dual spring set up, Comp cams makes springs. I figured since I was in there mind as well do roller rockers. Is something like 1.8 ratio good or dont even bother with them and keep stock rockers?

awsome. Heres a dumb question though. Wouldnt it make more sence to get shaft mounted roller rockers which are cheaper to buy then just upgrading the stamped stock rockers?

It would if you want a heavier valve train for no reason along with other unnecessary complications.

They are no longer stamped and are a big improvement over the rockers of the previous generations.
