Post question about the Vindicator cam shaft

Hey guys summer is brewing so its time for me to blow some money on my car. I have recently been thinking about buying the vindicator camshaft which is 240/244 .605/.596 112 LSA... I will be buying 4500 stall in the next couple weeks...

my question is will it run fine with the set up I have I have a GM hot cam right now.

243 heads( not ported or milled )

Full Michael Boltons

and soon yank 4500 stall

is there anything else that will be required before the install of the Vindicator?

what other parts do you have? Mileage?
I would recommend some upgraded springs. The BTR Doublespring kit from Brian tooley racing are good up to .660" lift.
some hardened pushrods But measure first.
oil pump, timing chain...
