Default Stock rockers on head/cam upgrade

BTR stage 2 cam and trick flow fast as cast heads.

Am I good using the stock rockers? If so what rocker stands can I use? The stock rocker stands have tabs that don't fit on the heads.

Also, if those little tabs broke off and fell into the block passed outside of the lifter tray. How screwed am I? Could I risk the tabs making their way to the oil pan or am I going to have to tear the whole thing down?
