Im looking into doing a 410 cam swap and im just looking for part numbers and what all I need to do it. I know I should probably get new valve springs, lifters, pushrods, and rockers. Is there anything im forgetting?
 
This really should have been posted in the 4.0L section.

You know it's the Comp cams 410 kit, so you have the only part number that you NEED. Buy the kit that comes with cam and lifters.

That cam gives a mild gain in low end torque and was designed to be a direct replacement for the factory camshaft. You can replace valve springs, pushrods, and rockers, but it definitely isn't necessary unless there is something wrong with the stock units. Being a roller cam, even replacing the lifters isn't necessary, but the kit comes with them. If you really want to replace all that extra stuff, just get on Rockauto and order OE replacements, you don't need anything special.

Only thing I'd recommend for adding to replacement list while you're in there would bve valve stem seals if they haven't been done already. IIRC, you're going to have the heads off to replace the lifters, no better time to replace the 28 year old units in there.
