Your stroker absolutely BEGS for a good roller cam setup!
Using the Crane 325-2S-12 hydraulic roller grind, an 1100 CFM carb , and headers with 2.25" primaries, DD predicts 676 HP @6000 and 697 lb-ft @4500. On pump gas. Yikes.

I have decided on a very similar setup as yours, but I am not going to start mine until next year at the earliest. Whenever you get yours together, post back with your opinions. I can't believe you would have a whole lot to complain about with a 557 stroker, but I am interested nevertheless.
