Valvetrain Upgrade advice needed

[Abarry48]

What exactly should I upgrade on my Zl1 valvetrain. Going to be upgrading. And don't want to leave anything out. Probably doing a BTR stage 3 cam. At the same time. Need suggestions on brands and what's the best parts to go with.
I don't want any weak links. Thanks guys.

BTR springs, retainers, pushrods, spring seats, valve seals, and locks. Best to just call Brian Tooley at BTR and he can put together everything you need. I got everything directly from him that I needed including the cam for $729

To add to Bryan's list above I think these are a really good addition if you want to get the needle bearings out of the valve train.

You think it's worth upgrading the lifters, valves themselves, and rockers? Or are those all pretty solid parts from factory?
Thank you for your help!
