Default SLP rocker identification?'s

Does anyone know how to positively identify slp roller rockers for the ls engines. I purchased a set from a member here and when I went to install them after comparing them side by side the stockers the look F'IN identical to my stockers.

I would measure the rocker from the bolt to the end of the rocker where it touches the valve and compare it to my stocker. The SLP is supposed to be a 1.8, I think, so there should be a difference.

It's a very small difference, but side by side you can see the diff. It's only a slightly different placement of the machined hole the pushrod rides in! The rockers otherwise are identical.

Ok I'll check would anyone by chance have a side view pic of them. On slps website from the best picture I can find where the shaft goes through the middle it is perfectly round and my stockers and the "slp" rockers have a machined crescent shape in the end. I've tried google and here but I cannot find any high resolution close up pictures.
