What's the best cam for a 302 on the verge of a supercharged 400-500HP build?

Loaded question and its too vague. Too many opinions/options. What top end is on it? Race car or street car?

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

I'm no camshaft guru, but there is a man named Ed Curtis who will grind a custom cam for any sbf to yield max potential. Contact him and answer all of his questions, and he'll make what you need. He is arguably the best in the business.
