Default Roller rockers for LS3

ok what is the stock size for roller rockers on the ls3? I think it's 1.7 but haven't found out for sure.

Are they worth getting? and is there any modification needed to the heads to make them work?
I'm going to be installing a cam here very soon also so it will be opened up and everything anyway so labor isn't a concern just wondering if they are worth the price tag or should I just use the stock ones again.
Thanks for any info.

Are the yella terras adjustable or do you just bolt them up with the correct pushrods?
