I'm thinking about getting Edelbrock Performer 5.0/5.8L Heads and I was wondering what is a good cam to go with the heads. I was thinking about the trickflow stage one cam, but I just wanted some opinions.

My setup is GT-40 intake, 70mm throttle body 76mm mass air meter, CAI, headers, x-pipe, magnaflow cat-back exhaust.
