You do not need headstuds. Headstuds are a matter of pressure holding. The cams have little to do with cylinder pressure. Higher boost does.

You don't "need" headstuds, but if you're paying for labor to remove the valve cover and install the cams, you might as well get the headstuds done at the same time IMHO.
