If you're still running those BBC rockers from the first 2 builds, your lift is around .530". Duration and timing events are also altered (amplified) so there is nothing fundamentally "wrong" with your combination for the so-called "driven-daily" use of the car. Room for growth in the heads but not a detriment to street performance.

It gets driven almost daily. In fact I put 60 miles on it yesterday. I am still using the BBC rockers.

You're in the goldilocks zone for street driving with that cam. I wouldn't change a thing, just drive and enjoy.
