Default 1.5 inch valve spring and roller rockers

I have 1.5 inch wide double valve springs on 853 cast heads. I purchased some yt roller rockers and they look like they will hit the side of the springs. has antone run into this? what rr will fit my oversized valve springs?

This is common on large diameter springs- especially 1.55 SBC shaftmount stuff. You either need to clearance the rockers yourself or take them to a shop with your heads and see if you can find someone to grind on the rockers to clear the springs.
