Self Align Rockers with Beehive springs?

Just as title says, i have done a lot of searching and havent come across a solid answer basically i got a slightly used set of 3/8 SA 1.6 pro mag rockers, in LE heads and i want to go with the beehive springs. are there any issues with pairing the SA rr's with these springs?

Aren't all Comp ProMag SAs 3/8 studs? If you are using fairly aggressive cam lobes which make your heads work as they were dsesigned to, the 7/16 studs might be a better choice.

I suggest that you discuss this with Lloyd or Bret.

The only problem you may have is when using +.050 locks with the SA rockers. This will leave very little valve stem for the rockers to align.
