I wasl told that while I'm looking for a little bit more performance I believe that's the word ~ I should put in a 260 or 265 CAM along with new lifters. (not the rolling kind) Was I told correctly guys

Sounds good... Comp Cams makes (or at least used to) a .268 hydraulic cam... that would be about as big as you should go for a mild performance gain...

7.IMPORTANT: GET GRADE 8 ~ 3/4 LONG. (FOR STRENGHT AND SAFETY)

You will need it to be longer than 3/4"... you will need them to be at least a 3/8" diameter... 3/4" of an inch would be a good gauge on how far out it will need to stick from the block after it is bolted in. I would say that you want it threaded into your block around an inch... maybe make them 1 3/4" long.
