At your own risk obviously but there are 2 of us in DFW running m62 with zzp s2 cams, ported head by euthenasia, e85 on a 2.7 full exhaust on stock bottom end with no issues. We are both 300+ hp cars and have had it for a few month now. It won't be long and I will be adding a whole new slew of parts with the stock bottom end minus balance shafts and mechanical water pump.
That being said, stepping up like this means you are in the area code of a modified car, nothing like s2. I hope you have a DD.
If I am not mistaken, we both used supertechs 75# springs

True but that's all part of modding a car. It's just part of the game. Mine is more molested than the little boys at Michael Jacksons house and I still dd it

i do have a dd now luckily that's why i'm considering doing a build in the first place.
can i straight up throw these cams and springs in and drive it untuned?
granted i'm on a james rakes tune but its dialed in pretty well for what it is now

yes
I would run a dual spring
dam skippy they are not but work well
