In theory you are supposed to use roller tip rockers with those heads because of the bronze valve guides. However, if you run a cam with 0.600 or smaller lift, and you are willing to take the time to shim to the proper "wipe" you can run OEM rockers. If you go this route, I would recommend you upgrade the trunion bearings for relaibiltiy.
Another popular opiton would be a set of Yella Terra Ultralites.
Finally, the more expensive option would be a set of shaft mounted non-adjustable Jesels.

you should have bought a head/cam pkg from vengeance racing.trick flow heads and a complete valve train.you can run your stock rockers with a shim kit,get a comp trunnion bearing upgrade kit.you will need longer push rods,at lest 7.5 .get a cam from Patrick-G or EPS cams.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>

When I got my TFS 215s from TEA I went with the Jesels (also from TEA), but I somehow got the impression that the only risk associated with the OEM rockers had to do with the long term effect on the valve guides, which could be minimized with attention to the set up.

It should work well. With those heads it doesnt matter what cam you go with youre gonna make good power. I wouldnt go much under a .600 lift though. With stock heads the MS4 is real close on PTV interference but because of the 13 deg valve angle the TF heads have you gain more PTV clearance so it shouldnt even be an issue. I cant say much for the MS4 & good driveability. I was getting my car tuned & a guy just had his MS4 setup tuned & it was very choppy idle. For $25 Pat G can spec you a cam for your specific setup. I have heard nothing but good things from others that did. I just went with an off the shelf cam (TSP 228) because a lot of others here said it is a very good street cam. It is very easy to drive on the street but has some lope & surges slightly at times but not bad at all. I like my setup but I am sure it could be better if I had a custom cam.

Dude, I know you're new, but try searching. A lot of your questions can be answered by reviewing and reading other posts. Pat G aka Patrick G is well known for recommending camshafts for people on this site. He's very knowledgeable about the dynamics of the LSX motors, but you will need to provide a lot more information regarding your goals for building an engine. Such as drag-only or weekend warrior? Daily driver or idle that will shake the fillings out of your head? What are your other mods (intake, headers, throttle body, etc.). Automatic or manual? Nitrous?
You see - lots-o-variables! Good luck!
