Default Everything picked but the cam, please help!

Here is the breakdown so far:

408ci iron block 11.28:1 SCR
6.0L block
Eagle Forged LS1 Crank 4" Stroke
Callies LS1 Rods
Diamond Pistons(-2cc)
Diamond Pro-Select Rings
Federal Mogul Main Bearings
Federal Mogul Rod Bearings
Dura Bond Cam Bearings
ARP Main Studs
AFR 225cc 72 heads (unmilled for now)
Cometic Gaskets
ARP head studs
Fast 90/90 NW
42lb Injectors

I would really like to get ED to custom grind a cam but he is not answering his emials or PMs. I can have a custom done by most of the sponsors if I tell them the specs I want but I wouldnt have any idea where to start. Sooo, Anyone have any opinions on a good cam for a 408 other than the texas speed giant(because thats the only one I can find)?

NOTE: Car will be 95% Street(although its not the DD) with 1-2 track days a year. Old setup was stock engine with MS3 which I tuned myself so driveablility issues I can work with.

Also call Brian Ebert at HiTech Motorsport (763-712-9088 or www.hitechmotorsport.com )....they have a 408 they've been working on and they have used a few different cams in it. I'm sure they could come up with something killer.

Good luck.
