Im doing heads and gaskets.

Heres what i have so far:
Ported, freshened heads. (as my old ones have a hole in it)
Felpro gasket set
Arp HeadStud kit

What else should i do while ive got it torn down?
I dont think i have enough money for a cam, although i would really like
one if someone can point me to one thats relitively easy on the wallet.
The car is pretty much stock except custom downpipes, no cats, and
flowmaster exhaust. The tranny has a mild shiftkit too. I was wondering
about roller rockers.

Any suggestions on roller rockers that would work on a stock cam setup?
I know nill when it comes to ordering new ones, perhaps ones that match
the stock rockers i have now just aluminum with roller tips?

Im poor, so the cheeper the better. Any other suggestions about things to do while its apart would be greatly appreciated.

Dan - save your money on the roller rockers. If you're looking for a performance increase it won't be there at your level of mods. Rollers are good if you have high horsepower and rev higher than stock. Stock, the SC is done around 5,000 rpm or so, so rollers won't be much help. And the bling factor is gone once the valve covers go on. JMO, John
 
you could gasket match the intake manifold, return plenum, and intake plenum. I also ported out the lips in the IC tubes and header wrapped my lower tube.
