Springs are JPM Oteva 75 with Ti retainers, stock diameter, best specs. I like.
Yes 1998cc, IDA, 44x37.5 (or so I thought when I ordered them....)
Cam....TBA. Not really a secret, just these things take time.
Definately a driver.

Will you be seeing what the heads flow before you pick the cam?
Custom or one of the standard grinds?
Suppose it all depends.
