What are your goals? high peak HP? Fast 6spd car? etc?
If you want something that is fast at the track just go solid roller and match it to the flow numbers on your heads.

something with good mid and top the bottom in power will be taken care of from the CI
i was thinking about a 240/248 115lsa but i think that might be a little small. any idea?

What's your bore and stroke?
Static compression?
What heads? Flow?
Spring type?
What kind of intake?
What size headers?
Cats?
What kind of exhaust going back?
Desired shift points?
Desired redline?
What kind of street manners? Light chop? Hard lope?
What kind of trans?
Clutch or converter size?
Rear gearing?
What percentage of street vs race?
Without knowing all these answers to these questions, you'll pretty much be guessing at cam size.

Put the list of combo mods down and we can help, otherwise what you'll end up with is a BALLPARK cam at best.
