Speed master LA heads

So if you do not use roller rockers, you don't need the correction kit? What about the 273CI stock adjustables? I was planning on reusing my stock rocker arms / shafts from the 318. Is this doable with a hydraulic roller cam / lifters?

The 318 stock paddle rockers are way too weak to use with the springs on the aluminum heads. Some guys are doing it but it’s just a matter of time b4 a push rod punches a hole thru them. As Mike said: u always need to check where the sweep is on the valve top. Kim
