Default Rocker Arms

Hey guys just wondering, i am buying new pushrods/rockers for my 350 and eventually i want to get some roller rockers. Right now the budget is tight so i have to go with standard stamped rockers, so my question is can i get the rollers say next spring to replace the stamped ones without having to replace anything else such as the pushrods? And is it true that the roller rockers can add 15-25 horsepower if you use them?

There are a lot of variables, but if you are staying with the same ratio rocker then I would think there is little to be gained just by reducing friction. If you are increasing from 1.5 to 1.6 then yes there will be a gain depending on your setup.
