Default 1.7 rockers

How much of a difference will some 1.6 or 1.7 rockers have?. I got the cam, heads, and intake etc. with stock rockers. Is it worth it?

ive heard the aluminum ones can wear pretty quick so do some research on the ones your gonna go with, i think comp cams makes one in stell but is lighter than aluminum but more durable, eh it sounds good anyways

The reason i ask is, i want to make sure that i do all the mods on my crate engine be4 i drop it in, u know. And i saw that the engine comes with stock rocker ratio. So i was wondering if i should get the 1.7's or leave the stock ratio ones in.
