Dont waste any money on your stock heads. Get a set of LB9 (305 tpi) heads at the minimum. LT1 cam is a good choice like robvas said.

Yea, it'll work fine but you might want to give valve springs depending on how old your stock ones are. Regardless, I wouldnt do a cam until I did a full exhaust and beefed up my suspension. I did the cam before the suspension and it was dumb. Live and learn I guess.
