thanks for the quick responses. but that's reason why i asked this question is because ive got the comp cam magnum roller rockers not the pro magnums. i wast sure if they were both shaped the same or were they different.

I had GMPP and Pro mags.
GMPP need nothing.
Comp Cam Pro mags can be done 2 ways. Cut the Baffles like DHdenney said or take a pair of pliers (not needle nose) and bend the lip on the baffles to go straight up and down and still keep the strength and allows equal clamping load on the head. I bent mine and they fit even better then with the GMPP's

Wait are you talking about the regular magnums that just have the roller tip? Those should fit no problem their not much wider then the stock rockers since their not full rollers

I would think they would fit without any cutting they don't look much wider then the stock ones. Try setting the valve cover on the head and see if it sits down flush
