the lift on that cam is crazy for such a small cam, I would like to see a dyno on that.

What short-block and bolt-on mods do you have? That'll help us recommend a camshaft that fits your combo best!

Yeah, 644 intake lift. Great lobes though. Not as hard on springs as you would assume.

231/227 .617/.614 110-1 lsa

That will give you what you want.
Strong trq 3000 rpm > peak
Peak ~6200 rpm, shifts ~6600
Power range 2200>6600+
9* overlap (nice rapid popcorn lope)

I had good luck with a HR2127/HR2129 110LSA +2 spec'ed by Patrick G for me. That's a 227/235 .645/.650 110+2 on LSK lobes. I swapped it out because 1) a lifter damaged a lobe and 2) I couldn't get the valve control I wanted above 6400RPM. I miss it!

Spec'ed by Patrick G for my then-current combo and ordered through Thunder Racing. I used Caddy Racing lifters with that cam, and switched back to LS7 lifters for the current cam.
