Default Which Cam?

I am debating betweeen 3 cam packages and I have done much research, but the majority I find is for m6 cars. The cam packages I am looking at are the HPE C-cam package, HPE S-cam package, and the FTI Streetsweeper Cam packger.

Goals: My current goals are to run a 12.4-12.5 which will give me the fastest time in my school. I am hoping to do it cam only because I don't want to spend a lot of money(right now saving for college is a little more important). Basically what I am looking for is which cam will make me fastest with my current mods? Currently I am leading towards the S-cam.

Current Mods: My current mods are SW LT headers without cats, Custom Daul 3 Inch Catback, Lingenfelter CAI, Vig 3200 Converter

Specs:
C-CAM - 232/234 .595/.598 112 LSA
S-CAM - 238/240 .605/.609 112 LSA
Streetsweeper - 236/240 .630/.630 111 LSA

Thanks for your opinions.

Thanks for your opinions.

I think you should look at the "Trak" cam that Thunder Racing sells.
