Custom or call Comp and have them recommend you a cam. Getting cam advice on the internet is like relying on the advice you get on Yahoo Answers about that lump on your left nut instead of going to a doctor.

That's like asking someone "What flavor of Kool-Aid will I like?"....
You'll get a different answer from every person that responds.

All the cam companies have "hotlines" and love giving you recommendations based on your current parts combo.
