I'm running Comp roller rockers too. I recommend using stud girdles. I had a 3/8 stud snap last December. The stud girdle held the rocker more or less in place so nothing was damaged other than the stud. I went to 7/16 studs which required new rockers, but now I'm not worried. I have a roller cam and the valve springs are very heavy. You'll have to buy new poly locks to use the girdles.
