I would contact a couple more reputable places and see what they come up with. Just to see the other options give pat g a message on here and will spec out a cam suited just for you.

check out the XER273HR...It's a little more aggressive than the one Comp suggested, but still has good driving manners and you can run the stock stall converter. I've got one on the way for my Vette, after researching it for quite a while.
