1.6 Roller Rocker Swap

I had a set of 16 1.6 full roller stainless steel rocker arms (Skip White brand) for my old 2.2L OHV turbo Corsica project, but it had to be scrapped before I could completely finish it. So I want to stick these in my 3400 and was wondering if anyone knew what kind of conversion studs I would need for a 99 LA1 and 3/8 stud rockers?

I have a set of ARP rocker studs for the project already (4.3L Vortec studs I believe) and was wondering if they would work (M10 X 1.5 base, 3/8" X 24 top)?

I'm pretty new to modding/learning much about these V6's outside of just regular maintenance. So I got to make sure I have it all right before I start thinking of changing anything. I'm also not concerned about clearance as these are very narrow because they are stainless steel full roller rockers and don't need all that extra material like aluminum versions do. So I hope this will work out for me with zero extra expense.

IIRC you will need some Gen II push rod guides as well

Thank you for the info, I will track some of those down ASAP. Might be a while before these rockers get thrown in (spring probably) but I'd like to have all the parts ready.
