Not hard at all.... Summit racing sells a convesion kit and so do a lot of other places.

Things you will need:

1) Lifter Spider (holds the dog bones in place)
2) Two screws (drill and tap the block to mount the spider)
3) Roller lifters designed for the conversion
4) Roller Lifter anti rotation pieces (lifter dog bones)
