Default need help picking a cam setup

Ok, built my motor, and it's time to pick my cams and some valves. Right now im thinking just use stock valves, but any input is appreciated. Tuning will be done via programmed ecu w/ VAFC. keep in mind, this is a daily driver/weekend racer. Here's my setup so far:

1994 B18C1
Stage 3 port-n-polish head w/3 angle valve job
skunk2 intake manifold
vortech fuel regulator
JDM b16a injectors (plan on getting some 310s)
Omni dual vavle springs and titanium retainers
stock throttle body

Block:
JDM ITR pistons
Arp rod bolts

Exhaust:
DC 4-2-1 header
Omni test pipe
Thermal Catback exhaust

Any good ideas? maybe Crower 64302-A? skunk2 stage2 intake, stage1 exhaust?

I would say search the archives here. There's lots of good info there. Here's a link to start. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=766629

hahahaha.

What is your budget?

Lots of money - Toda/Jun

Some money - Skunks

a little money - Crowers (which have the rep of breaking)

No money - JDM CTR or ITR Cams

I got the skunks, there good, all I had to do was change the valve springs and the retainers and tune the engine a lil.

money is not an issue. Just need a broad idea of what a good cam choice would be for my current setup.
