Just grab a set of Comp gold roller rockers (maybe go 1.6:1, it's what the LT4 ran).

i hope you know that's not all you're going to need to swap a cam. since that's a fairly small cam, you should be fine with self-aligning rockers. comp pro mags are a good choice to go with.

you're also going to need a new spring kit as the stock springs are only meant to handle the stock cam. many people use the crane 10308-1 kit, however its hard to find now since crane went out of business. comp cams makes a beehive and i believe the number is 26918 but don't hold me to that.

you're also going to want to get hardened pushrods for a little extra security as the stock pushrods aren't that strong. i think that's about all i have right now but i think i'm forgetting something
