you will definitely have to upgrade the springs. most will say comp 918's. depending on rocker style, you will need guideplates for NSA rockers.

ask COMP cams they will guide you. And they are honest, if you buy direct they will actually admit they cost more and they actually tell you to shop through JC whitney or jegs!!

My Camaro SS had 1.65 Crower rockers on it when I bought it (with an LPE 219 cam that was way wrong for the combo, even then), and they were very nice rockers, similar to the Comp Pro Magnums I have now. I replaced them with the Comps when I changed to a GTP 6 cam, since GTP couldn't say for sure if I'd run into clearance issues on the stock shortblock. Honestly I'm not sure the extra .05 is worth it, and depending on your setup it could lead to geometry issues.
