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.

Yeah, but you have a 427 with a roller cam. I only have a 362 with a hydraulic flat tappit cam which is a decent sized cam but nothing wild. I should have 400 hp at the fly max. Given that my build is hot and not wild, would I really need a girdle?
