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...

Other than springs and pushrods how about a LS2 timing chain and ported ls6 oil pump?
