Default Roller rocker find!

Alright guys i think i just hit the jackpot. I found some crane cams roller rockers from a friend of mine for $50.00 dollars. They are the color gold and i looked them up and the only gold ones that i could find that they make are the gold race ones. They have been in a car but have absolutely no scars or marks on them so they couldnt have been in a car long. He says they are out of a chevy small block the only thing is i dont know if they will work. He has the pushrods that were with them. I dunno if i should use them or not? Also, the numbers that read on the rockers are- 11-1.50 and under that it says * -10 The only number i could figure out is the 1.50 which is the ratio. Anyone know what the numbers mean? Are they worth buying? They are the full rollers and it comes with the nuts, only thing i would have to buy is the screw in studs. Another question is do i need guideplates? Thanks in advance.

personally...i think you'd be happier with 1.6 rr's. most camshafts today work optimally with 1.6's. hell even the hotcam comes with 1.6. but i guess itsup to you. and guideplates aren't a bad idea anytime you do something with rockers...but you'll want springs as well
