Has anyone done it?

Is that kit needed?

I have a set of 1.3 rollertip rockers from Mini****t and only realised as i was setting clearances how "out" a few of the tips are...

Just the tips...

“A turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.” - Jeremy Clarkson

If the rollers do not cover the valve stems, the rockers need shimming or mods to move them. This `should' only be needed on exhausts, because the exhaust valve positions were moved on 1275 heads compared to smallbore heads (to fit the bigger valves in).
Some makers supply a different set for smallbores only...

I have also noticed that rollers can beat up the tops of the valves compared to regular rockers. Danny's inlet valves (almost new) were particularly bad, they had a radius worn into the end. But the rollers on the 1.3 rockers were still fine.

Pull the rocker cover and look in from the front. The rollers don't have to be dead central on the valve stem but they should cover it.
