Default Installing roller cam in 1979 302

Ok. I have a 1979 ford 302 bored .040. I want to put the roller cam in the block to make it the 5.0. I have a good roller cam with all the dog bones and lifters. I also have a set of 1987 5.0 heads. I know I need to drill and tap 2 holes in the valley. What about cam bearings? Will 79 cam bearings work with a roller cam? Do I need to plasta guage the cam bearings and install cam bearings for a roller cam?
