Cam suggestions for my 430cid?
I am currently switching from a T56 to a 4l80E with 3800+ stall and thinking about changing cams while I am freshening up my engine. My current combo is a 430 (4.135 x 4" stroke) TEA TFS 245's with LS3 valves and K-800 springs. 11.6 scr, port matched fast 102, LPE MAF, yella terra ultralights, 175 shot plate, 3650 lb's, 4500 elevation. Current cam is 251/255 .653/.660 112LS 108 ICL Comp SP lobes (29 degrees overlap) with Morel link bar hyd lifters.
I know I want to go a little bigger on the exhaust lobe but I want to keep a MAF tune. I was looking at the comp extreme energy solid street roller lobes. They look very similar to the SP lobes I'm using but maybe a little softer on the seat, softer than some of the hyd roller lobes. Was thinking maybe a 254/260 .660/.666 114 LS 108-109 ICL. This would be the same 29 degrees overlap that I have now. Any suggestions? I would really appreciate some expert advice.

Thanks. I filled out the cam form on the tick website but couldn't find an e-mail address. I copied and pasted it on they're contact page message box. I hope it is readable for them.

Martin @ Tick just designed my nitrous cam for my LS3-442cid . its a monster but im putting down a 400 shot . Martin will do you right ,just make shore you have every thing in front of you when you order a cam from him. He will ask you every thing a bout your build from the intake down and from the converter to the gears in the rear. I got my cam yesterday Hyd. .718"/.656"-257/273-116 LSA -112 CL the cam was ground for Jesel Mohawks 1.80" int & 1.75" exh.
