Default 5.3 PRC Stage 2 w/ 1.75 rockers?

Wanting to find out whether or not I am going to need to swap out my Comp 1.75 rockers for a set of 1.7's when I install my 5.3 PRC Stage 2 Heads. I don't think it should be a problem but I want to be sure. The cam that I am using is a 224/230 .581/.592 114LSA.

you can definately run those 1.75s with the smaller lift camshaft. You'll have plenty of valve spring left
