it's a '99 5.0 with stamped steel pedestal mount rockers.
 






The stock rocker setup should be ok for about 500 lift, if, big if, you don't over rev.
I'd try very hard to keep the revs below 5300 rpm's max with anything higher.

This is merely an opinion, of course.

You should be able to find some great fun in the stock valvetrain.
 






ok I'll keep that in mind.

I think I may replace em anyway.
