I am pretty sure you have to change them. I think a lot of the guys are running harland sharp rockers.

You can use other ratios than the 1.7's if you want to, the main thing is, you need roller tipped rocker arms with the TF heads. I've got the HS, but Yella Terras, or Cranes are good too.

why do you need roller tip rockers? are the stock ones adjustable?

The TF heads have a narrower valve angle, which will result in uneven wear on the valve tips, if using stock rocker arms. The quick fix is roller rocker tips. And no, the stock ones are not adjustable.
