What roller rockers?

I currently have a 350cid with superram intake, 1 5/8" headers, 52mmTB and a few other goodies. I also have a LPE 219 cam ready to install later when I can afford somo AFR 190 heads. What roller rockers do I need and when? Would putting them on now help or should I wait til I do the cam and heads. 1.5 or 1.6, also self adjusting or not?
thanks

I'd really like to know what people have to say here, as well. I hope some people take the time to answer.

1.6 rockers are better then 1.5 as long as your valve springs can handle the extra lift. Self-aligning rockers are for heads without guideplates. At least this is what I understand from my searches in this website.
