Default Curious about rockers..

I have a 1998 Camaro SS. I have a Texas Speed 233-239 cam, Patriot Stage 2 heads. I am about to hook the NX wet 100 shot up, and I plan on getting the LS6 manifold, and 78mm throttle body. Well, I was curious about rocker arms? Is it worth getting some? And i decided to get some, which would be recommended for my application? Thanks.

a lot of people run stock RR with no problem. I'm partial to my Jesel's though

Edit:
you might get more feed back if you post this in the internal engine section

The only rockers I would consider are shaft rockers (not yella terra's, harland sharp, they are not a true shaft rocker). Otherwise i'd just stick to the stock rocker arms, they act virtually identical to a shaft system, just not quite as beefy and not adjustable.

I would never put stock on a motor that was apart...do a search and you can see the failures...they are marginal.
My pro Comp magnums work great without any issues...just clearance the valve covers.
