Default getting new heads and roller rockers

i have 2k ta with a 6spd got the lg XX cam and its now time to buy heads i have already flycut the pistons i already have the fast intake and nick williams throttlebody just upgraded the interior seats to corbeau seats and a 6 point chromolly cage and dana 60 with 456 gears. i am looking at the trickflow heads but i'm finding that i need to change my rockers out i was thinking either the harland 1.8's or the comp's i'm just trying to get the best combo possible but i'm new so just trying to get ideas, i don't see many people running 1.8's on bigger cam just curious if that would work with trickflow heads and my cam which is a little bigger than the trex.

The cam has enough lift. Don;t add to it with a 1.8 rocker. It will cause all kinds of issues. The worst is geometry.
