The lower end sounds good, however I would go with different heads. Thats quite an investment into a set of 317 heads. Would go with higher compression.

ET heads come with solid roller spring pocket, or even All pro heads, many have used PSI 1224 spring in solid roller LS setups.

Maybe AFR 235 heads will have a solid roller spring pocket?

hate telling people to spend money but I would expect a set of 317 heads setup for solid roller will run you in excess of $2,000.

I do have a set of valve covers that look like factory, however they are raised 1/2" and have coil pack bolts holes in em, if anyone is interested.

No reason why it should break 500 through a 6 speed. Even an A4 should be upthere.

I don't know what your goals are for the car but that is a pretty good size cam for a street car. Like was said above I would squeeze more compression out of it.
