Almost any cam will be better. What head's are You running & it's a manual tranny rite? Stock 6 rib pullies on Your a trim? IF you have stock head's then You should swap those out before the cam as Your valve spring's will be floating at around 5000-5200 with stock head's which will give You a narrow power ban as the blower probably won't start making boost till 3500. If You are buying a new set of injector's You might as well go with 42's but You could probably get away with 36's but won't give You room to grow. With a manual tranny then You should consider 355's. You will need a 255 fuel pump in the tank. Give more info on Your combo and it will help people give You better answer's to Your question's

You should be fine with the a trim and HCI as long as Your engine is in good condition. Your fuel system, tune, and driving habit's will also effect Your engines life span. What gear's do You have now? Fuel pump? FMU? Timing set at?

I have actualy had very good luck with the E-cam and blowers. I wouldn't waste the money swaping that. Spend it on good heads first.

yes, a lot of people diss the e-cam, but it is actually a decent cam for basic supercharged setups. x2 wut 2 stangs says

edelbrock performers if you wanna keep it smog legal, if not, then performer RPMs, they're descent and not too expensive.

You can probably get by with a 255 walbro intank pump and the FMU for now. You should just try to find a set of used aluminum head's "locally if possible".
