Default Mopar performance roller rockers

So I can get a set of mopar performance roller rockers like super dirt cheap brand new. Will they work with a stock valve core no spacer needed?

If they are adjustable, you will need a spacer.
Nonadjustable fit without spacer.

1.6- smoother, quieter, slight improvement in rpm range.

1.7- big improvement, smooth, quiet, more power, extended rpm about 500rpm, instead of the engine falling flat on it's face at 4000rpm it pulls to 4500-4600. Best with 62mm TB and headers and 2.5" exhaust and free flowing intake. Acts like a mild cam, works with stock valve springs.

I had HS build me 2 sets of 1.7:1 but they are expensive, like $500/set. Easy to install, less than 2 hours.

Cool thanks.if I did the the mopar ones and had to get a spacer I'm guessing my cowl air intake wouldn't work because it comes over the valve cover
