There really is no perfect setup. Is it a good setup; sure. But there are many options out there. What is the main goal of your car? track? DD? For my personal taste, I like a decent sized cam that has a healthy chop/lope with a very usable powerband. I like the way a huge cam sounds but I don't like the laziness down low and I like the low-mid range of a small cam but not the sacrifice on the top end. So needless to say I like a mid-large cam that has great low-mid range torque while still maintaining a decent top end. A cam like that will sound badass, put down great power (that is usable), and if tuned correctly; can be easily daily driven. AFR makes amazing heads though they are pricey; If you are on a budget you can always look into PRC Heads from Texas Speed (They are awesome; guys are very helpful too), they also have a great selection of cams. Popular choices are the 228r, Torquer V.2, etc. If you give them a call or PM them on here, I'm sure they would gladly help you make a decision that would fit exactly what you want. Good Luck man!
