So I definitely need to pull off the intake and check what cam is in the Vette engine. It's a 1987-95 block and all 1987 and later Corvettes came with a roller cam. I was going to trade for a cam to swap in but it dawned on me that it bay be a poor idea if I don't know what I've got 
Push rod length? from Superchevy forum:
The next test if you have any of these roller block numbers is to pull a rocker cover and after cranking a cylinder, number 1 being the easiest, to Top Dead Center firing position. Loosen a rocker nut till the push rod can be removed. Measure it, 7.794 inch or there about tells you the engine is hiding a flat tappet cam in a roller block. 7.164 inch give a take a little, tells you a roller cam is in there. Reinsert the push rod and adjust the nut for proper lash.

I did see the starter and suggest High Compression because you Have Angle Plug Heads, they Make plug removal tuff with the wrong exaust Headers and buy Extra plug Boots they will burn without the right headers,also they do make a shorter plug,not all that much help though.
