440 build up.

Any cricism of this build would be appreciated:

440 w/ stroker crank yielding 502"
.060 over diamond forged aluminum pistons
10.5:1 compression
Edelbrock RPM Perf heads out of box (not ported)
Comp magnum steel roller rockers (rated for 350 lbs open spring pressure??)
.355 rear w/ 4 speed transmision
3500 lb. 70 Coronet R/T
6 pack carbs/edelbrock alum intake -

Not sure which cam to go with, but here is what I've narrowed it down to:


Comp Cam #s:

23-711-9 lift 541/537 Duration @ 50 230/236
23-712-9 lift 544/541 Duration @ 50 236/242
23-713-9 lift 549/544 Duration @ 50 242/248 Pro Street/ Bracket prob not for me

Any more lift than the 712 and I will need to replace the rockers which I would rather avoid unless I can really step it up a notch performance wise and still be streetable.

I'm open to other than comp cams if anyone has a suggestion. Also any info on how these cams will differ due to varied duration, lift, etc. with regards to a 500" motor would be greatly appreciated
