I'm getting some 1.72 roller rockers and I was thinking maybe I should install better pushrods while I'm in there? Do ya'll think they would be necessary or stronger valve springs too? I appreciate any help, thanks.

Before I would invest in valve springs and differnt size RR I would go aftermarket heads, cam and intake. Those 1.72 may be too large to use again down the road.

use a pushrod checker to get the correct length if ur stuck on the 1.72's.
