Roller Rockers on my LT OK guys I need some answers here please.
I am going to be purchasing a CC306 cam and Comp Cams dual valve springs alond tih ne retainers and all. My biggest question here is about the rockers i am gonna order.
First off I have looked at both the Proform and Summit house brands and they seem relatively decently priced but I am not sure on quality. Next question is, do they need to be full roller or roller tip? Whats the best there?
The cam has a lift of .510/.540 so use that as the basis please.
Please help me.

IMO I'd go with full roller 
. AS a personal preference I suggest Comp Cams Pro Magnum Rockers. They may be a little noisy compared to others, but I highly recommend them. A friend of my had a set of profoms on his daily driven heads and cam caprice for 30,000 miles and had no problems with them...

If you are going to play at high rpms like that cam will demand pony up the bucks for something proven like the promagnums. Or heck just swap rocker studs and get some GMPP guideplates which lets you run non-SA rockers opening up many less expensive quality options.
SOrry thought it was 30k
