We are here to try and help each other. I only know a little more than you and you will catch up fast!
You may already have the SVDA, your car may have come with it or something just like it. The first thing the big engine guys do is change to the 009. It is great for MAX power but is not the best for driving around. Your stock crank should be fine unless you already plan to make your engine bigger, larger cylinders (jugs) and a larger crank (stroker). You would not want a cam so big that it had problems with other parts, you would want a slightly larger than stock cam for a little more power but still reliable. The stock rockers could be used on a mild cam. If you decided later that the cam is not enough, different rockers could be used to make it "seem" like you had a bigger cam. If you have not visited yet, there is a website here that has a "newbie" area. It is where I started to learn what little I know now. Jeff-

Camshafts are chosen more for RPM range (powerband) the engine will run in, and the cylinder heads used, plus induction, than the stroke of the crankshaft. Easy bolt on stuff for stock engine would be 1.4 rockers, check valve springs before doing this part though, dual kadrons, good header 1 3/8 size tubes. Of course, before doing anything make sure you have a good stock engine to start with, "you can't make chicken salad out of chicken soup"
 as the saying goes. Hope this helps some.
