I looked at your new cam specs. It is aggressive for a street cam. If you are going to turn above 5500 rpm you better have about 400lb open and 150 seat or the valves will float.
Even if you set your lifters close to zero lash, remeber it is possilble for the lifter to launch off the peak and hammer on the back side, over time it will destory the camshaft.
By the way a quick way to check a cam is to pull the distributor, in 5 minutes you can see the #1 intake lobe backside and if you turn over the engine the whole lobe. You do need a mechanics mirror though.
