If anything, you could call a cam company & see if they can grind a torquer cam for you.
I only wonder about the rockers swap because it only takes about 40 mins to do it, and pulling/swapping the cam requires a bunch more work, and additional cost.

I could probably get the rockers free from a junkyard, but to get a custom ground cam (probably) will cost me in the $100 range, and I'll probably have to send them a core, too.
