Well IMHO both of those cams are too big if that's what your wanting. Even cams smaller than that will peak above 6k, including the cam you have now. Even if it DID peak at 6k on the dot, you would have to rev on out a little past that to get any use of the power.

So with that said I say either keep what you have and add the heads, or change out the bumpstick and get ready to rev....which isn't a bad thing
