Comp Cams XE266HR or XE274HR are both a pretty nice dual pattern grind for the bolt-ons in you sig and still leave some room to grow for future upgrades.

I will probably be going with the TFS stage 1 if it is emissions legal. Another good choice would be the Steeda #18 or #19.

I dared to be different and just got in the Steeda #18. Hopefully I'll have the new engine and cam in within the next 2 weeks.
