Default questions about 1.7 roller rockers with AFR 185's

I have a 94 GT with a 347 and currently am running a Trick Flow stage 2 cam and AFR 185's (stock springs). I want to go with a 1.7 roller rockers but have been told that the AFR 185's will not support this. Has anyone done anything like this?

My pistons are good for up to .600 lift. At least this is what the guy from Coast Performance told me. This is where my engine came from. The Trick Flow stage 2 cam is a .542 lift and with 1.7's comes out to being .576 lift. I called Anderson today and left Rick a message.
