Would I be able to swap stock E7s onto my 83 GT and just use my rockers, pushrods and lifters? Only reason I ask is because I do not have a roller engine, and the E7s use a roller valvetrain. I could just use my rockers, lifters and pushrods and I should be fine right? Would I see a performance improvement by doing this? I know the E7s flow better than whatever is on my 83, I just want to double check. Thanks.

I can get E7s for free and GT40s cost money, not looking to build this car up real fast, I have one of those cars already.
