Default Think this would be a good motor combo?

Accel SuperRam Plenum and Runners, Scoggin-Dickey Vortec TPI Base, GMPP Aluminum Vortec Fast Burn Heads, GMPP LT4 HotCam, on a stock bottom end?
It would seem that those heads would really flow good for that intake, since they have a 220cc intake runner, and that cam seems like it would work well, since it has a 218/228 duration with .525/.525 lift.
Price seems pretty good on all these parts:
SuperRam Plenum & Runners = $700
Scoggin-Dickey Vortec TPI Base = $400
GMPP Aluminum Vortec Fast Burn Heads = $1200
GMPP LT4 Hot Cam = $200(Figure cam and lifter price would be)
I was reading in I THINK it was Chevy Performance this month, they did a dyno with the S-D Vortec TPI Base and such, on a stock bottom end L98 (I figured it was 87 Corvette L98, because they said it was a hydraulic roller), it produced around 400ft./lbs. of torque with like 350hp. Of course, that wasn't with the SuperRam plenum & runners, it was only with the stock plenum and large tube runners.
