Need help with cam selection!

I am putting in a built AOD with B&M Transpak and B&M Holeshot2400 convertor.Car still has 3.27 rear but that is also being changed to 3.73.I also have a prepped set of e7 heads with gt40 valves.I am having trouble making a decision on the cam.I don't know what is best whether it be the FMS E-Cam or Crane Compucam #270-444231.Both cams have .498"/.498" gross lift.Is one of these the best way to go or does someone here have a better suggestion.Car goes in to have work done on Mon.If it helps any,I'm not going with a supercharger or nitrous.

If you want the most power out of your combo and can spend a little more money on a cam, I would suggest you call or email Ed Curtis at Flow Tech Induction (www.flowtechinduction.com). I am having him make me a cam to fit my combo. He is said tho be the best at what he does. His cams are expencive, $325 shipped to your door, but you won't get any better performance out of an "off the shelf" cam. Hope this helps.
