Without porting the head, installing bigger valves isn't going to really be of much benefit. The key to these engines is the head work, without it, it will greatly limit the power output.

YOU DONT NEED C/M PUSHRODS VALVE SPRINGS SHOULD BE MADE FOR THE CAM YOU SHOULD GO SCREW IN STUDS IF YOUR GONNA REV IT. YOU SHOULDNT CUT THE HEAD ANYMORE THAN IT TAKE TO CLEAN IT UP YOU SHOULDNT 0 DECK THE BLOCK AS THE GAIN ISNT WORTH THE RISK OF CRACKING UNLESS THIS IS JUST A TOY TO PLAY WITH ALSO USE L/P PISTONS IF YOU CAN FIND THEM JUST MY OPINION

YES I know george baker well for many years. L/P pistons are liquid propane pistons. they are higher compression than stock and work well with gas.

Without a well prepped cylinder head, a roller cam isn't going to provide a lot of benefit. Using a roller cam would require pulling out all stops as far as head porting, bolt boss removal, install lumps and aggressive porting mods. Seems like a long way from your original intentions.
