Comp cam Magnum roller tip rocker ?'s

are these rocker arms considered roller rockers or stamped stock type rockers...I am confused because my new edelbrock aluminum heads say to use a .100" longer pushrod if using stock or stamped type rocker arms..

Although they are not stamped but investment cast, they are still dimesionally the same as the stamped rockers. My best guess is you'll be needing the longer pushrods. Call Jegs or Summit for a verification.

really the best thing to do would be to dummy up two valves and check the push rod length.
