1.85RR's? will they work?

i was over at ls1.com and reading some of their posts and 1 was on SLP'd 1.85 roller rockers. i currently have crane gold 1.6. im just curious if the 1.85's would do me any good. or wold i need a bigger cam to make those useful.

You'd need a small lift cam and some TALL valve covers to make 'em usefull. Just stick with 1.6s.

I believe those would be LS1 specific. LS1 rockers wont work on a SBC head, different design.
