Well you can check out mine when they arrive <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> They are actually done!!!
You need to cut the spring seats larger for bigger springs. You need a shaft system (I am running Jessels), you need lifters, custom valve covers (like mine, but you cannot get mine!!! ahah) or SAM spacer. I also have an old ARE rev kit (well may still work).
Gains can be big and of course you can run a bigger cam in general without losing much drivability.
oh yeah coil relocate....
