I like the 233/239 from texas speed. Check out the post in this section I made. Titled Just finished cam install. Has great sound and tuning is not as big of a deal

If you want your tranny to last, don't pick a high rpm donkey dick cam. Choose something in the mid to upper 220s and a narrow LSA (110-111). This will give you the sound you want, be easier to tune, and have a much more usable powerband.
