Just finished ordering all my new parts for my motor. Just need an extra 275 to pick my heads up from the machine shop with their fresh valve job.

So any way I ordered up, a comp cam 12-246-3 cam .477/.480 lift 230/236 110ls,comp cams 2100 magnum double roller timing chain set,edelbrock performer rpm intake,a set of comp cams stock replacement pushrods, a set of pro comp(pro comp electronics some no name brand I guess) anti pump lifters,K&N 14" air filter, mid mount alt bracket setup so I can use my 69 heads,a pro comp high flow water pump.

On the list to get:
Hedman ypipe for shorty headers-(working on getting from chrisfromnj)
Any kind of a good replacement or aftermarket radiator-(working on getting from chrisfromnj)
My heads back from the machine shop-(need moolah babbbayy)

Now I would like to simply know If I can install the cam and lifters now, with out having the new heads. I wont have the money for the new heads for probally 2 weeks so would it be a bad idea to let the new cam sit in the block for 2 weeks before getting fired up?

Also what kind of numbers do you guys think this set up with a 350 bored .40 over topped with a 650 edelbrock carb,headers y pipe and aerochamber cat back will produce at the crank/wheels?
