need some cam help

I have no idea what to choose. Do roller motors really make that much more power? Why does Desktop Dyno always add like 60hp for a roller cam? In the future I will porbably swap to a roller motor only because there are so many more choices out there. But for now please reccomend a cam for my set-up. I would like to go 12's hopefully mid but if I could hang with some LS1's I would be happy.

This what I plan on running:

355 with 9.5 cr
Edelbrock RPM heads
Superram (Speed density don't know if that matters)
backed by a T-56 spinning 4.10s I think either that or 3.73's

------------------
I WOULD RATHER PUSH A CAMARO THAN DRIVE AN IMPORT

1983Z28 350w/ edelbrock performer RPM power package , dynomax shorty headers, 700R-4 with shift kit, 750cfm carb, edelbrock 3" exhaust system, 16" IROC rims and ASCD SS hood.

future mods:
completely done over suspension, black paint with flames,
T-56 almost ready to go in, TPI swap coming up

Wifes new car:

95Z28, AT, leather, T-tops bone stock for now.

future mods:
header to tailpipe replacement and a cold air intake. Then I am just going to leave it alone
