Comp 503. Great cam. great sound and god low end and mid range. You will have to upgrade the valve train though. Cam has a .536/.544 lift on 1.6 rockers and is a 224/230 duration. I ran it and loved it.

Baller, buy this one from him.
Make sure you get the correct springs and retainers to complement it, tune it, and you'll have a great performer.

You will need a bigger stall with that cam. I have a very similar cam and love it! Take what you think you'll need to spend for a cam swap and make sure you have double ready.
