Sorry it is a m6 and I plan on adding a strange 60 with 4.11s. It is my weekend car so not a daily driver one bit. Mainly just cruising maybe a little bit of autocross if possible and I'm sure I'll take it to the track to get some times in.

Why not ask AI to spec you a cam based on their heads?

This would be my advice as well. And it's also excellent advice. I myself have the AI 226 cnc package. Ended up using my existing cam. Would have been a much better idea to just have Phil spec a new grind. It would be safe to say that he knows his own heads best.

I just talked to my tuner and that is what I'm going to do.
