do you mean rocker ratio?it's 1.7 for the stock rocker.and if you are asking if you should change your rockers when doing a cam change,no,as long as they are in good shape.i'm using my stock rockers for my heads/cam swap.

as stated, the stock rockers for all LSx engines are 1.7, you dont need them but if you want true roller rockers i'd look into the Harland Sharp set, they look pimp and come in at a great price 350 bucks.
