As Shoebox said, at a min you should run LT4 springs. You can sometimes see people selling the LT4 spring kits complete for ~$50. If budget is not an issue, I would get some good springs, that way if you ever go cammed in the future, you won't have to swap springs a second time.

Yes like stated above, LT4 springs, guidplates and a set of pushrods. Look into some chromoly pushrods like the trickflows, they are a good piece for a cheap price.

Comp Cams 1.6 Promagnum NSA roller rockers.
ARP 7/16" rocker arm studs.
Trickflow Guideplates.
Trickflow Chromemoly pushrods.
Comp Cams 918 beehive springs w/ seats, locks, and retainers.
You would have a very stable valvetrian (assuming you checked the geometry properly).
Cool thing is that once you decide to install a cam, you'd already have all of ths supporting mods installed.
