Other listers might correct me on this, but I don't think roller rockers are
going to do much in the way of additional power for your engine.  They are used
primarily in competition engines as a way of reducing stress at high revs, but
I know one very good vintage Spitfire racer who uses stock rockers on his 1147,
and regularly turns 7K with no problem.

What, if anything, have you done to your engine?  There are lots of
possibilities; some cost more than others ...
