They are pretty good, I personally would go with comp cams because of the bigger bearing and if you plan on running real high spring pressures, then aluminum isn't the best way to go, plus although they are aluminum, they are still heavier then the comp cams stainless rockers.

 

You will need springs--suggest you get some doubles just in case you want to get a cam later---base the spring pressures on small cam if you don't know what or if you will ever get a cam.

If the RRs you get are Self-aligning, you will not have to get quide plates and hardened pushrods---if you go with NON-self aligning rrs you will need get these parts too.

Ask Dealer for a quote on time for the installation of RRs, springs, etc, including Adjusting the RRs once installed.

Use the quote--which they get from a manual, check it against another Dealership to see if the labor is the same and then you need to shop around for a performance mechanic and see what they charge----you are better off going with a dealer if you can't
find someone who is familiar with LT1s (or working on performance cars in general---that way you will at least have a guarantee to fall back on.

If you are mechanically inclined you can do it yourself---because it's not going to be cheap---BTW that is why you should buy quality parts, if your going to pay a premium for installation anyway. I.e, do it right.

Make sure that when you assemble your parts that they are compatible and have the mechanic check the geometry to ensure that stock push rod length will provide the best geometry. JMHO
