heads and cam

i'm rebuilding my 350 tpi. i will be going with the super ram. i was going to stick with stock ported heads but ws wondering if these would be worth the money heads .also i will be putting light weight corvette pistons in it, a 2800 stall, it already has headers and exust and will get a custom prom, underdrive pulleys afpr. would this be a good cam to go with this combo would i be able to use the stock roller lifters and the stock rockers? also what would i have to do t the heads to be able to use this cam? If not this cam, what cam should i go with. i diont want to have to change any vacum.
Thanks for any help!cam

the stock superram intake will not fit these heads. a vortec specific intake is needed and scoggin dicky (sdpc.com) is the only one that makes it. it alone is like 400 bucks. the vortec heads have to be machined to accept higher lift cams( anything over 4.75 lift). im no head man so youd have to do a search on here to find out exactly what has to be done to these heads, but i know ive heard from several people this is true. do a search on here b/c i know its been covered.
