I'm pretty sure you won't have to adjust the neck unless you have an extreme low action to begin with. Even then you might consider leaving the neck alone and adjusting the bridge height if your already to low and start to experiance a buzz.

But chances are, your going to want to switch to a heavier guage of strings and also with that a slight adjustment to the springs to balance out your trem and bring it back down in the zone so to speak.
