I used the ZZ4 cam with my L98 aluminum heads, SLP 1 5/8" headers, and ported stock intake. It made 285 HP at the rear wheels. I think its a great cam for a mild to moderate 305 or 350 TPI. Check the other mods in my sig. Dont forget you need new valve springs, as the stock ones wont handle the lift. Scoggin Dickey has this cam on sale right now for $100. www.sdpc2000.com

EDIT: I dont think you'll need new valve springs with the Edelbrock heads, but double check with them to make sure. With 1.6 rockers the exhaust lift is about .540".
