Wow, that is a small cam. At any rate what kind of power did you make and could you post info about your setup? If you don't its kind of hard to offer up good advice. Also what are you willing to put up with ?? Drivability issues and increased maintainence ??

With the ZERO info you have posted I would say don't go too big, but get something in the 232/236 range and keep the lift at .590/.595 I am not an expert but from what I read posted by the "experts" that cam would pick up significant power over your current cam without being too rough on a dual valve spring setup as well.

Or just go custom grind and tell whoever what your goals are and let them discuss what they can and/or can't do. Just don't go tooo big or you'll be dealing with a race track only car ok bro. Good luck.
