One pro is good drivability

I was thinking of running my tubular with a ported lower and some aluminum heads (afr or some tf170s) and a stock cam but I would retard it 4 degrees to move the powerband closer to the range of the heads*
the setup i described should be good for 300rwhp if the tune is dialed

roller rockers, less friction, cooler oil temps, smoother operation. I'd say it's worth it.

.030" more valve lift cant hurt.
