C5 Z06 & LS2 = 243 heads
I would think that since they both use the same heads that the rockers should interchange.
The only difference between them is the sodium filled exhaust valves in the Z06 heads.

There are guys on here that are running them in their LSx engines. I was following this topic for a while. They got a bad wipe pattern but I don't recall and catostrophic failures. Last I knew, someone was well over 10k miles with them with no unusual valve tip wear.

Maybe you should say "are not recommended to be used in other applications"

The reason the LS7 rocker arms cannot be used on an LS!,2 or 6 head is because of the shape of the intake port and location of the pushrods caused the intake rocker arm to be offset.
