Roller Rockers

Hello all you gear heads, I posted this question in the general 67-72 foroum a couple of days ago so you might have seen this question/opinion seek before.
I am in the process of putting together a 390 for a 1970 F250 Camper Special and was wondering if there are some roller rockers that work well for a basically stock 390. What I'm wondering is if there is a roller rocker kit/ retrofit that would let the engine make horsepower easier, Don't need or want more hp but I'm willing to spend a few bucks letting this thing work easier/perhaps get a couple of more miles out of a gallon of gas. This tub is for pulling a travel trailer a couple of times a year so I don't want to break the bank building it but as stated would like to improve mpg a couple of miles per gallon.
So any chance you guys have any experience making this sort of Mod?
Thanks in advance

I posted in the original thread, but didnt know it was an FE. The shaft mount roller rockers are very spendy.
