Default Rocker Arms

I have a 1969 Windsor that i've decided to rebuild, its got the stock rocker arms on it, i was wondering if i had to do anything in particular to put roller arms or can i just replace the old one with rollers?

Not sure but I think those rocker arms are selfaligning. Plus press in studs. You may need to get the heads machined for studs and guide plates if you are going to run more cam and heavier springs.

you can run roller rockers on the stock studs but if it mildly modified i would consider upgrading to better studs and guild plates are a must
