w00t!! thank you mr. fedex man.

Well my roller rockers came this morning and I now have all the parts I need for my cam swap . The only thing left to do is give my mechanic buddy a call and see when he wants (or if he still wants) to do it. Hopefully it'll be done within the next couple of weeks

Awsome, good stuff. Is that something you'd normally be able to install your self?

I could do the roller rockers myself, but I'm not to confident about doing the cam.

It's not cheap, but I know a mechanic who will give me the hookup on the install, I'm guessing around $500, but I just added up the cost of the parts with the gaskets and everything & that's up to $700

I got the cam, gaskets, & lifters. I did buy roller rockers, but they're not needed. Then the cam came with retainers, locks, & springs but I don't know if you need all of that.

Springs are a must with a higher lift cam.
