Default New rockers with cam?
Am I going to have issues with the rocker arms if I upgrade my cam? There is no need to change them is there?

Most people leave the stock rockers and never have any problems.

Unless you have a specific reason to want to change them, don't. JMO

You can always go with rebuilt stockers from Harland Sharp. Peace of mind, great price, no fear of spilled needle bearings.

You are fine..the only reason to change to after market roller rockers is if you need to pick up the 10HP that that they provide or your are running a vavle train combo that requires the stability of those type of rockers..
