Which Rocker Arms?

My Trick Flow Engine Kit came today (the intake manifold is on backorder)

Its this kit here with the street heat intake as opposed to the track heat intake shown in the pic

My CURRENT setup as far as the rockers goes is a set of 1.72:1 Scorpion roller rockers mounted on stock heads.

The ones that came in the kit are 1.6:1......

I'd LIKE to use the larger ones as they are in good shape and only have 40K on them. Longer pushrods came in the kit. Will these work with the 1.7's? (my stock heads with the 1.7's had the stock pushrods so I'm assuming yes, just looking for a confirmation.)
Also is there any reason I SHOULD NOT USE THE 1.7's? Either way I'm gonna have a nice set of roller rocker arms up for sale soon :D
And a stock HO intake with a mildly ported lower :hick:

The Trick Flows are set up for stud only rockers... Assumin your 1.72s are bolt down, you can't use them on the TW heads.

OK that makes it simple then. Thanks.
