I've never used a Lunati Cam, can I use my comp lifters? I have a brand new in box XE274 with the new lifters, and would like to only swap the cam if possible.

Thanks all for the replies. It will be a street/strip car mostly and it does not have air so the lumpy idle is ok. I will be porting the heads to try to get more flow, plus port matching with the...

Then what's a good cam choice and springs to achieve close to 500 horespower with those heads? Desktop dyno says I will be sitting around 450 hp and 500 lbs of torque with the 274.

Thanks for the reply Cliff. The heads are 96cc, they are untouched. Flat top Ross pistons, and .040 head gasket. Perhaps my 10.5:1 comp ratio estimate was a bit off.
