It is the TIP that matters the most...It prevents valve-stem wear and reduces friction...they are forged rather than stamped so they do not "flex" like stock rockers AND they bolt right in. They only cost $130.00 and that is money WELL SPENT...
: :the Comp cams rockers aren't roller, they're roller tip rocker. lots of difference. I use a set of Comp Cams rockers, they're very good. Real Roller rockers have a big advantage, more oil cooling, less rocker arm friction, and stronger. disadvantage is they are bigger and cost more.

: Competition Cams Magnum Roller rockers are great and they bolt right on with no modifications...

: : : I currently have stock rockers, and would like suggestions on some good rollers and anything else that I'd need to do the swap. I don't have screw-ins, or guide plates. These 289 heads have slotted push rod holes, and therefore don't need guide plates. Help would be very much appreciated!
