In that case you'll want to use guided rockers(where the rocker's roller has an edge that rides on the valve stem) or you'll need to use guideplates under the stud.

It would be a far easier solution to just use traditional roller rockers with guide plates. It is no big deal to set up the stud mounts for this method. You shouldn't have any pushrod slot issues with the heads either since the pushrod doesn't guide on the slots in these generation heads.

If your spring pressures aren't too high you can also use a roller conversion that uses the existing setup but I can't say this is a significant improvement over the stock setup.
