search? i would go with maybe buddy club spec 5's or skunk2 pro 3's for that. what ever u go with is going to work well cause of the high comp ratio. but because u have a high comp ratio you can go with some huge cams and make power but p2v clearances are extremly tight with that stuff.
Your choice of 1mm over IN and .5mm over EX valves is going to limit you cam choices. Maybe some SK stage 2's DB4's, M22x, and if you are really good on checking numbers the Pro2's.

really, in this case, his v2v is the limiting factor.
