351w what roller came should I go? b303 e303 etc?

I had a 342 but threw a rod and so now I am building a 351w. I am on a budget at the moment so I needed to start with a budget 351w. This setup has AFR 185's, 75mm, rpm intake, 30lb injectors. My original cam was a TFS 2 cam .542/.563. This cam was damaged when the rod broke. So now I need to decide what to do about a cam. I will be using 1.7 rr's. My first thought was maybe a b-303 cam. I use to have an e-303 cam but had idle issues with it. This was before I had a tweecer to adjust things. At the moment the only cam I have is a stock 5.0 cam. So what do you guys think? I dont want a cam that will run to 6500 because its a budget motor.

well when u are ready to UNbudget that motor and want to switch to some 205s....let me have the afr 185s....i think u should go with a trick flow stage 2 cam

My future plans are to stroke that one out to a 393. At that point I would definitely want to upgrade the heads. The 185's may be peakin out with the 351. Although with a small cam I doubt if I am pushing them that hard. TFS 2 cam is what I had. It was a good cam. I am concerned about the power band. I have 1.7's to deal with.

Get a stage 1 then, hands down better than the e303 because I had one in my 302 before. e303 might be find for a 302 but i don't know about a 351...

Yeah I have been leanin towards the tfs 1 cam. I know with the 1.7's it will bump the lift from .499/.510 to .530/.542. Do you think this will effect the power band much?
