It's not necessary to replace the rocker arms for high hp. The Phantom Grip rocker arms can be used in race cars to eliminate valve train weight and improve high rpm power. The engine is always on the big cam with these things-no LMA's. User 12NV is running them:

These also eliminate vtec and require a special cam.

These rockers require the use of special roller profile camshafts, I believe. $$$

horsepower doesnt matter to rocker arms, there isnt any more strain on them when they are on a 400HP car compared to a 200HP car. RPMS are the only thing that would affect them.
