You have to get a roller cam conversion kit. If you dont wanna do that then you will have to drill some holes to accept the hold downin the lifter valley, and have one made, and depending on year you would have to have other block work done to accept the stock style 5.0 roller lifters. Ive seen it done before that way, but your best bet is with a conversion kit.
