Before I would go for cheap rollers that can and do fail and dump shrapnel your motor, I would install new stamped steel factory types in a heart beat!
Just confirm that the slot is long enough for your amount of lift and then save up for Sharp’s or stainless steel rollers.

The only time I have seen factory stamped steel rockers ware badly at there nose is when used valves have been shortened and left with a course finish, or when naturally the geometry is off by a good amount.

Super stock racers use stamped ones with no issues with far more spring pressure then you will likely be running!

Crower and Harland Sharp are the only 2 I'll use. Primarily Crower on all builds but if I'm forced to use aluminum Harland Sharp is all I'll consider.
