Default cam question

hello i'm new to the cam swap thing
i'm looking for a good cam needs to be streetable but looking for that good lope sound
comp cam's said the biggest cam i could use is a XR269HR and it wont give me specs online

i've got comp 921's spring kit, chromoly pushrods and HS 1.8 Roller rockers

i noticed 1.8's arent a good idea for a cam i wish i woulda known that before i bought them. thunderracing cam's dont recommend running 1.8's so should i ditch them and get new rockers or keep them and run a smaller cam?
can anyone help me out?

If you want to keep and run those rockers with a cam take a look at the crane grinds. I know Vinci advertises thier cams work well wih 1.8 rockers. I would have to agree. You can get lope out of any cam, just lower your idle RPMs.

would it be more worth it to get new rockers or keep and use the stockers for now in order to use a bigger cam or doesn't it really matter?
