it is recomended that you change your valve train to prevent valve float.. but actualy you can just drop them in!

You`re always safer to just do the job in it`s entirity, meaning upgrading the whole valvetrain.
I think the most important part would be the springs/retainers, that`s where you`d have problems. However, I have heard of lots of people just throwing in the cams and going for it, but I would`nt do it....
