You will need to add a breather to the sm valve cover, the 450 gas head breathes out the top of the cover, not the back of the head. Horse power increase should be good for a couple. Rockers, I'm almost possitive, the same.
If you want to really inhance performance, for pulling and not break your budget, send the head and manifold up to Gary Baker. ph # 734.678.9688

He does some head and manifold work, that will really increase low end torque. Stock or big cubes!
Do not shave to much off the head, compression increase is not enough to warrant destroying a good casting.
