The later rockers swap over fine to an early block when used with the matching late cam. I've personally seen it done on 3 early W124 and one 2.6 W201 with no issues. And It's exactly what Mercedes did when they were replacing flat cams under warranty, back in the day. The only difference is the material of the new cam/rockers is hardened properly so you will not eat cam lobes anymore.
