What to do with uncle sams refund for the goat, cam or cam and heads? Getting a little confused if i should get just cams or cams and head package? Got extra money back from uncle sam! Also looking for a good speedshop to do install and tune near santa clara ca. Current upgrades: b&m shifter, jbm shorties, k&n cai and slp lm1! Did a look at what thunder racings website. Any recommendations???

I guess it depends on how much you want to spend. Cam install and tune will cost about $1200-1600 parts and labor. I am not sure how much heads parts and labor will cost. I assume you will be keeping the shorties. I wouldn't get a cam that is too aggressive. Ed Curtis can design a custom cam for you. If you get an off the shelf cam then something like a 220/220 .550/.550 would work. You could go a little more aggressive like a .224/.224 and still pass smog.
