      okay what i am confused about is that do i need to upgrade the throttle body, push rod, or the geometry of the rocker arms. I know that i need to get valve springs. but those questions still arise.

        It all depends on the cam. With a mild one, you don't really need to do anything else. A more aggressive cam will require more mods to run it safely.
