anything from a Hot Cam, to a C1/112, C2/112 or a TR224/112... the hotcam comes with springs, is easy on the springs, and fairly inexpensive...

Definately look into the TR224 cam. Will meet all your needs that you are looking for.

B1, C1, MTI Stealth I & Stealth II, TR "Old Man" & 224. Pretty sure Lingenfelter makes one also. Good Luck.

TR220 112 should be looked at. That fits your requirements perfectly.
