update...
got the motor out, went pretty smooth, i left the T/C on the tranny.
waiting on a few parts in the mail.
went with the comp cam extreme energy 262in 270exh 4x4 cam and lifters.
tore apart the old engine. found a bad lifter, the bottom of it was mashed up and the cam lobe went flat, only on one lifter, any idea what would cause this???? i replaced the lifters recently, did everything by the book and one failed, could it be a faulty lifter?
here are some pics
best i could get of the lifter compared to another.

That cam you picked is not EFI compatable, you need one with 114LSA or greater and less than 215deg intake duration.. preferably quite a bit less to produce a steady vacuum signal. Your choices aren't great since Crane went under but the Comp cams 35-255-5 fits the bill.
