For one thing, "alls" is not a word.

Second, no thats not all you need. Your going to need a front cover gasket, water pump gaskets, oil pump o-ring.

If your car is an auto, youll need a stall. If its a M6, youll need a clutch really soon.

How many miles are on the car? If its less than 50k the lifters will probably be ok. If more than that, they're on borrowed time with a cam like that and the spring pressures that come along with it.

Good luck

Like stated, there are other items to consider, the cam gasket kit being the minimum.

What other mods have you done to the vehicle? What kind of vehicle is it? Auto or 6 speed? What do you do with the vehicle (daily driver, all race, combo of both?)? Let us know some more info and we can help be sure you get what you need for your vehicle.
