Define "work". As in, "Will the engine run?" Probably, although you might get interference between the pushrod hole and pushrod.
Will it run better with 1.6:1 rockers? Probably not.
"Can"? Yes.
"Better"? Probably not the best HP/$'s outlay.
The suggested valve springs would be a better investment. Do retainers while you're at it and eliminate those heavy factory exhaust valve rotators.
