I don't think it is very common to use poly locks with stamped steel rockers, but I am not aware of any reason why you can't. If they won't work, please explain why not?

I would think Grade 8...

Raising the position of the rocker stud is not going to require a longer pushrod.

It just means that the rocker needs to be positioned further down on the stud.

It would probably be a good idea to check for correct pushrod length, but I do not think you would need a longer pushrod after the changes you mentioned.
