Default EPP's blower cam with 1.75 rocker arms?

I found a set of Comp Cam type rocker arms that are custom made by a local shop, that claim these will work with my ETP 240 heads. I want to try them out, but the only downside is that they only come in 1.75's. I am using EPP's blower cam.
Will that extra .05 on the rocker arms negativily affect anyting? I am just curious if anyone else has used that blower cam with with a rocker arm that increased the lift. thanks
Jimmy

Well it will also increase your ramp rate also, but I don't think it will be enough to hurt you, but you might call them and see what they think.

I asked Bob, but he said that they never personaly have used higher ratio rockers with their cam, so he wasn't sure what the outcome would be.

I dont think it will affect much as long as your springs can handle the extra lift and the rockers arent super heavy. I havent used that exact cam but I have tried 1.8 rockers (or maybe 1.85, whatever the old SLP ones were) on other XER cams and they worked fine.
