We need more info on your motor. CI, current cam, intake, supporting mods, etc.

i got the heads really cheap, they are in perfect condition almost brand new, i got the fenderwall intake, polished cobra intake manifold, 3.55 gears, Zex 75-125 wet. Polished cam shorty heads Mac underdrive pulleys. I have put nothing on the car yet except for the pulleys, and intake. I plan on getting another 5.0 engine to build on this winter nad then just drop it in. So i need some info on a good cam to drop in there and some rockers and lifters to put in. Im pretty new to all of this stuff although I work at my dads auto repair shop, he knows how to swap and change everything but doesnt really know whats best this is the first car i have in which i can really mod the engine. I also have a Lincoln LS thats been in many shows but thats all interior stereo and exterior nothin for the engine. So if you guys could help me out so i can get all the stuff i need and start on the engine. Ive thought about getting the tf stage 1 but didnt think it would be the greatest potential one. Any more input would be great
