If you want to spend the cash just get a custom grind from a reputable builder. Run about $450

Since dynos vary I wouldn't put a number on things. How much are you willing to spend?

Figure out what your goals and budget are for the car, then you can decide on what you want for a cam. There are tons of sponsors on here that can all give you a cam that can fit your goals.
