too much cam for my 305?

I am thinking about rebuilding my 305, it has low oil pressure and burns oil and it would give me some peace of mind to rebuild it and have it running strong.

While i'm in there I want to put in a cam. I was looking at this cam
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-K1103/
My question is how well would this work.
Rpm Range: 1600-5200
duration: 272 int./282 exh.
@50 214 int./224 exh.
lift: 0.442 int./0.465 exh.
LSA: 112

My L69 is not computer controlled, I have stock converter, 700r4, and 3:73's. Headers will be in the near future. Street driven and will be taken to the track every now and then.

Would I need different length push rods? Also how would these springs work? or would I even need them?

Your best bet would be to contact summit racings tech line. They can help with all that and possibly offer some better combinations.
