Will these rockers work and are they any good??
I was thinking about getting the Blazer Aluminum Roller Rockers that are 1.5 ratio for 3/8 stud. I don't need self aligning because my AFR heads have guideplates, but will I have problems with the centerbolt valve covers?? Also does anyone have an opinion on the quality of these rockers??

I would not recommend aluminum rockers for the street. They have a nasty habit of fatiguing and breaking in half unexpectedly when they get a few miles on them.
As long as your valve springs and other parts will support it, go for as much lift as you can get. Use 1.6s. A large-inch motor needs as much flow as you can give it.
I'd recommend the Comp steel rollers, IIRC the # is 1302.

Which steel Comp rockers do you use?? Which ones can I use that aren't self aligning but will still work with centerbolt heads?
