Stock rockers Afr heads?
Getting a million different answers on the subject with searches and would like a more difinitive answer if possible.
I ordered a set of 72cc 230 Afr heads for my ls2 (a lower compression blower set up) I am wondering about using the stock rockers with a stock cam and the use of bronze valve guides on the AFR heads. Is guide wear only a problem with higher lift cams; bronze guides and stock rockers?
I was planning on doing a trunion upgrade; but have also heard mixed reviews on that also.
If I went with roller rockers my plan was Yella Terras.
Of course stockers are cheaper; but I don't want to save a buck for dependability.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Yeah when i decide to do a cam it will be for a blower so it will never be high lift.
I wasn't sure if bronze valve guides would be a factor with stock rockers.
From what I gather AFR heads share stock geometry; so I was assumming it would be fine to run the stockers without worring about premature guide wear.
Just want to be 100% sure.
