Heme parameters already exist in the Gromos force fields. There are some missing bonded parameters, as I recall, but people have used them for simulations, so I suspect the necessary information is somewhere in the literature. For searching purposes, it's best to use the correct terminology - there's no such thing as a "Gromacs force field." The one you reference is Gromos96 43A1, which is a specific parameter set within the Gromos96 family of force fields.
