naturally aspirated? blown? nos?

Custom grind is always the way to go.

but for an n/a street combo, and if you want to stay with an off shelve cam, id say something like the motorsport x-cam, or call comp cams tech line, and ask them what they recomend for your setup.

Like Coupe 50h said it all depends on what you're doing with the car. What RPM range are you planning on running? Power adder? Road race,street/strip, drag only? Usually the best bet is to phone the tech lines and they will ask all the pertinent questions and walk you through a cam selection.

Bottle what heads did you run with the cam The one's I think I'm going to go with for now is a set of gt40's sent off for a good port and polish job with a set of 1.6 rockers on them.
