Default 12.0:1 n/a build best cams?

best cams to run in here considering there are so many to choose from..
b20b... rs 12.0:1 84mm
stock rods w/ arp rodbolts
refreshed head w/ no portwork
skunk2 mani.. bdl 68mm TB
rubbish dc headers for now.. will be looking into a replica header later.
this is going to be a street setup...with occasional times to the drags.
kinda looking for something over 200 but closer to the 220hp, 150tq range.. and looking to rev to 9000rpm at the most...

You didn't specify the engine platform (B/H/K/D/J/F...etc), What are you goals for the car? What are its uses? Drag? Autocross? Track? Street?

Blue... no, no, wait... Red!!! wait wait wait.. Green!!! No, definately Green!!!! ;o)

Really, you have to determine that based upon what you're using the car for, as well as midrange power and torque needs, budget, and availability. The lift and duration numbers are important, but don't forget about the ramping of the lobes of the cam. That is the biggest difference. Look to your needs first and then start searching online for actual cams, and impressions from owners. What you're asking is a very vague question.

This is going to a street car... that sees the track about 8-10 times a year w/ it's occasional street races.. I want a good midrange but also not to sacrifice to much topend..? thanks for all your folks help...

Pro 1s.

And don't buy a replica header; do yourself a favor get a used real header.
