There really aren't any common durability problems with FE stands, shafts, or rockers, Chris. I haven't done a scientific survey of all valve train related failures, but the stock system seems very stout as long as it isn't overstressed by very high spring pressures and very high rpm over long periods.

The springs used in the Edelbrock heads are not stiff enough to cause durability problems, and the rpm you're turning will not put undue stress on the assembly. Your roller rockers are even a bit overkill for your combination.

Just properly torque everything.
