To properly benefit from those cams you'll need to use higher compression pistons, better rods, have the entire rotating assembly balanced so it can rev higher, you'll also need to upgrade the valve springs/retainers and wouldn't hurt to p&p the head as well...

And most inportantly, get it tuned properly.

Pro 3 cams are huge. Unless you are building an NA all-motor drag engine, I wouldn't recommend using such big cams. It won't be very streetable at all.
