Default About to install harland sharp rebuit rockers

Each of my rockers seems to have a number stamped on it (C3, J3, I1... etc) does this mean anything?

Also do I need to use new valve cover gaskets?

I do not think the numbers mean anything. They should all be the same. I would replace the valve cover gaskets IMO.

No need to replace the valvecover gasket, unless your car has a lot of milage.

Numbers don't mean anything, I remember seeing similar stamped numbers on my stock rockers last time I had them off. I would also re-use the valve cover gaskets unless they're torn up. That's just me though.
