the first thing that should be done if your gonna get serious with a h/c/i swap is a conversion from s/d to mass air. im not saying its impossible with s/d but chances are the motor wont be happy. there are lots of good cylinder heads out there now, but if it were me tfs fast as cast heads would be sittin on top. there awsome out of the box and if you decide to boost it theyll handle that too. as mjr already said pushrod length is measured 1st! then they are ordered. on tfs heads dont even think about using the stock pushrods, with there altered valve angles the factory rods wont even be close. as far as rockers well there again lots of good ones out there, ive used comp cams pro mag rockers for years with zero issues. and yes dont reuse your timing set, a good roller set is all you need. as far as cams go well you could go o/t/s and itll run pretty good but to get the most from your combo a custom cam is the way to go for not too much more $$ and also with these mods your gonna need a larger fuel pump, and depending how wild you go injectors as well, remember everything must work hand in hand leave 1 thing out and it will not run to its fullest potential. im sure others will chime in to offer suggestions, lots of guys here with proven combos,listen to em and reap the rewards. good luck
