Nice little set up. Should be a decent improvement over your stock "HO" stuff? Got a nice bumpstick picked out to go with it, or are you sticking with the stock cam for now?
If it's a stock post '86 engine, the E303 cam should work without issue. If it were me, I'd install the cam now while the top end is apart. They can be had used for about $100 and doing it now is a lot less hassle than doing it later.
Swapping out to roller rockers is only a matter of pulling the upper intake and removing the valve covers. So that would be a much easier job to tackle later on.

Yeahvthats a good point. I was looking at a speed shop here, ford racing setup, hard pushrods, lifters, cam for around 400 out the door. Ive looked at a few used cams but i question used engine parts. Not a bad idea though to stay in budget. I could skim the classifieds here i suppose. Im over budget as is, wife is a lil upset lol
