I got a brfpr and I still have a ton of room on 60s with my 2.8 tvs setup stock head stock block. I think my idc is 64% down from 89% without the brfpr.
And as said above. add pistons to build and rest looks stout.

Honestly man, I wouldnt borrow money to do a build. Save up what you think you will need, then add 50% problems happen and you want a cash reserve to fix them. ask me why I know.
Yep, buy blue's cams, 574's springs, stock valves, save money and be happy. Stock motor isnt even trying at 300whp. I know you are planning for the future, but it really sounds like most of your noises can be addressed in the chain/guides/fasteners department.
I'll be getting my stock motor with ported head and zzp S2 cams out tonight to put in my other car and should be in that 300whp on the ol M62 in my daily/winter car
