Default How Much Will My Lift Increase?

I have a cam that has .581 lift and was wondering how much my lift will increase if I go with 1.8 SLP rockers. Correct me if I am wrong.
((.581)/1.7)*1.8 = 0.6152

I think the SLP units are 1.85 and that will give a lift of .632

If they do happen to be 1.85. Will this kind of lift do well in a 391? It is a 6.0 block with 6.0 heads that have not been milled or anything. Just wondering if the valves will clear the pistons. Oh yeah the pistons have a -2cc valve relief.

P.S. Hoping to move up to imaginary numbers 101(-i)^(1/2) now that I have passed fractions 101
