Power increase adding 1.6 rockers to LT1?

I have a 97 Z with ss ramair kit pacesetter long tubes 52 mm throttle body madz tune no emmisions and i'm looking at a set of 1.6 rollers for cheap is it worth the trouble? A cam ect will come in a year or so when the motor gets redone. Its a A4 with a trans go.

Thanks

My dyno run after the rocker install last year showed 7 rwhp and 2 rwtq.

I also saw results a while back on a intake/cat back car and it also yielded 7rwhp.
