Default Cam, Intake, and Carb package

i was wondering what everbody else thinks would be the best performing pakage for my 351cleveland, converting it to a 4 barrel. I really dont know exactly what camshaft i want to use, but are summit cams any good? if not i would go with one of the Lunati cams for my engine. But i was thinking of going with the basic Weiand Intake manifold and holly 600cfm 4 barrel carb with manuel choke. Does this sound like it will work ? im looking at making above 250 horsepower, i dont plan on boring the block, or porting the heads. just basic bolt on power. I also have much to learn about ingnitions and the electrical system of my car. So any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

P.S.- one of the first things i want to do is get a new distributor cap, 8mm plug wires, new msd or mallory coil and ignition box. i still dont know alot about that though, and the "firing order". Im seeking knowledge on all of this, thanks.
