Default GTP rocker arms on a LS1?

I have some unidentifiable rockers but there is a 6 hole rocker girdle with them so i am gong to assume they are from my 97 GTP. A6 is stamped on the rocker arm. I broke one of my yella terra and i need a quick fix till i can get a new one back in. My car is sitting @ school and might get towed if i don't get it out! will these work for now to get my car running anyone know? I was just going to cut the girdle and use the 2 rockers on that one cylinder. If i remember correctly the Ls1 and GTP springs and rockers were swap able.

Rent a trailer for $50 and tow it to your home or have a tow truck tow it to just off of campus for $20ish. Have a friend with a truck tie a rope to it for free. I think you are making this way too complicated.
