Roller rockers vs. adjustable pushrods

I intermittantly get some lifter noise, and was thinking that having some adjustability would be good. Anybody ever see any gains with roller rockers? I dread the idea of grinding the heads to fit the rockers.

Are the champion irons already machined for those? That would be sweet! If you're reading this pete, see if you can get me a price on those too please.

Hey sean, I don't know what time that meeting is, but its in march, so I'll get it before too long. Maybe pete knows? You gonna drive? Cool, I'm calling shotgun now. I think paul from hr parts is gonna be there, hope so, I need one of those bushing tools for the rear housing.

I'm not really nervous, just got this money burnin' a hole in my pocket! It gets like that when you don't have kids! j/k My buddy had his kid 2 days ago, we've been over there checkin' him out. Now she's got the baby jones, but she'll get over it. He ain't slept in 4 days, screw that. We bought him some clothes, well, she did, I wanted a shirt that said "Show me your t*ts, I'm hungry", but no one else saw the humor in it. I'm happy for him, but not jealous by any means. See ya
