302 roller cam

Over the last couple of days I have been putting my long block together. It is going from a stock 302 to a wild 347 stroker. I'm putting in a roller cam with the roller lifters. Do you have to break in a roller cam the same way as a stock non-roller cam.

As an afterthought, I wouldn't mind hearing some estimates on horse power, if any cares to guess. Here's the setup:

Balanced 347 with World Roush 200 heads 2.02 int/1.6exh, flat top pistons
Lunati roller cam 290/300 .540/.560 lift, roller lifters, roller rockers
MSD ignition, coil, 6A box
Holley 670 street avenger
Edelbrock PRPM dual plane
Dynomax headers, dual exhaust, 40 series flowmasters

Nearest I can figure is that it's going to be alot. Thanks

No, you don't have to break in the roller cam. Is this going in a truck or car?

It was going to go into my 66 Falcon but I figured it may be a little too much for the old car. I have a 68 F100 that seems like a prime canidate for the motor. Thanks
