You do not need to run the factory rocker bosses anymore, the rules are already changed to allow guide plates and studs.

Refer to:

Camshaft/Lifters: Delete last sentences of paragraph and replace with "Larger diameter pushrods permitted. Pushrod guide plates permitted. Cylinder head may be clearenced for larger diameter pushrods."
