RE: 1.7's ......
The crane bolt down roller rockers come with the Ford part number right on them. (1.7) and they are the exact ones from Ford Racing know as the Cobra rockers. I have used them on three different builds with the stock heads without trouble. I have had to go longer push rods on aftermarket heads because the are usually slightly taller than the stock head making the push rod too short.

RE: 1.7's ......
You might have to grind down your valve covers as well, sometimes with the stock valve covers the higher rocker has a tendancy to hit the cover, quick and easy fix though since they aren't just cheap pressed valve covers like most cars have, lots of material to grind.
