Cam vs. gear

[1985Mustang]

I'm not building my engine for a while but it eats at me every day thinking about it. I want a cam that thumps the ground but is still driveable down to 1700 RPM's or so. It WON'T be my daily driver so mileage won't be a BIG concern. I want it to be mean as hell on the street, so 3.73 or 4.10, and what kind of cam? (heads/intake will be ported edelbrocks)
