Default 1.6 rockers???

Well I'm looking to get 1.6 rockers but are the roller rockers worth the extra money?? I have no clue what I want. Any input is appreciated.

Yes, definitely worth the money. Also recommend guide plates for LT4 heads from GM vs Comp (line up little better) and Comp 1pc chromemoly pushrods and 7/16" ARP rocker studs...

I have the guide plates and ARP studs, I'm trying to piece together the rest of necessecities for my H/C combo, do the 1.6 roller rockers free up more HP? what brands are good? I appreciate it.

Comp, Crane quite a few good brands out there, they definitely free up a little rwhp, less friction, less valvetrain wear, if you're doing h/c go with some good springs obviously & good hyd Morel lifters or something comparable.

What about Scorpian roller rockers?

(I already have fully built heads with Comp beehive springs)

Thanks!
