Default Harlan Rocker Versions?

I'm looking to build up a roadracing LS engine right now and have a question re: the harlan rockers.

I'm trying to figure out if there's two versions, as i've seen:

1) A version with a roller tip and the orange finish that looks to also be heavier over the valve tip. Looks like a nice piece, but I'm very concerned with valvetrain stability at a goal of ~7300rpm redline.

2) Another version without the roller tip that's not orange and just rebuilt stockers without the concern of failed needle bearings.

Is this the "harlan sharp" vs harlan rebuilt stockers that we're talking about here?

I understand harlan also does adjustible/1.8/LS3, etc. I'm just asking if they have the two versions described above. I'm confused. Thanks!

Correct, they have their own aftermarket rocker arms, and they rebuild the stockers as well.

The aftermarket HS rockers are $360. The others are just called modified stock rockers
