Default Can i put roller rockers on my stock engine?

Just wondering if i can put rolloer rockers on my stock 87. It has no mods yet just new stock parts to get it runnin right.

Dont roller rockers free up some horsepower?

If so how much do you think i will gain if i put them on?

Which ones are the best deal?
