cam swap question

okay, this is a combo I have never tried so have little knowledge. I am wanting to put a cam from an LT1 into a LO3 with LG4 heads (416). my primary question is, do I need self-aligning rockers, guideplates, or nothing special at all to make this swap?

my secondary question is, do any of you have any specific tidbits of advise or knowledge of interference issues? I am planning on changing the springs, but not really sure of what with yet.

I'm trying to keep the cost down since this project is for my nephews first car. (I'm sure it is going to get destroyed.)

Nothing special needed the 416 heads use NSA rockers since the heads have small push rod holes that act as guides.
