I would stay away from the Edelbrock cams. The lobe designs are old and have very slow opening and closing ramps. I would look into a Lunati Voodoo cam. These are current designs and are easier on the valve train than the comp cams Extreme line. They should make a little more power also. Call lunati and talk to Harold Brookshire. He is the designer and knows cams. He used to own Ultradyne.

I would recommend Crane Compucam 2030 or 2040
