You should be ok. Make sure the cam caps aren't scored though. The insides, where the cam rides.

A little scoring is normal for used cams. BUT without looking at it, I can't say for sure. If you post up a couple of pics that would help us immensely.

I would try just replacing the rockers. The cams will have some scarring in them over time. I've always been taught that if you can catch your finger nail on them you have a problem.
