Default HELP! L98/Superram/Vortec intake?

I have an 85 vette and a Superram and a scoggin dickey TPI vortec intake and will purchase a 219 cam. The superram will fit on the vortec intake with a little grinding and a shorter bolt by the one runner. My question is which vortec heads to use and what other parts do I need to make it a full roller engine or as they say a retroroller?

Or should I sell the superram and get large tube runners to save me the hassle of the superram situation and purchase a ZZ9 cam?

Superram
vortec heads
vortec intake
219 cam
roller rockers

Or

Large tube runners
vortec heads
vortec intake
ZZ9 cam
roller rockers

Which large tube runners are the best for fitment and performance and ease of installation?

TPIS, Accel, Edelbrock, SLP?
