You don't have to change the guides to use roller rockers that are the same as stock ratio. Guides should have been checked when they did your heads.

A good screw-in stud, correct length pushrods, guide plates, and poly locks are all you need to use the correct rocker.

Correct length HARDENED pushrods if you are using guide plates.
