Whether you get a bigger cam depends on your needs, which you havent shared. There are many Summit cam kits, with many lifts and such. Check your part number, and go on the site and search yourself. As for the springs, well, the same applies.


And lastly, please refer to this diagram:

What 305 heads are they? 416's? I dont know a lot about valvetrain, but that seems like quite a lot of lift to me. Between that cam and those rockers, you're probably going to need some pretty good springs, and I woldnt risk using ones that you don't know the specs for...
