Your cam card should make a spring recommendation. I'm a big fan of the beehive springs.
For lifters, it's hard to beat stock Ford lifters for durability. If you want a few extra rpm's, Keith Craft modifies the stock Ford lifters for that.

Yup its the 70 falcon motor, as i tore it down it looks like it was recently rebuilt so it all worked out good for me.
