Default LS vtec

i bought a freshly built ls-v from a friend. not even 500 miles on it yet. jdm p30 pistons with stock LS rods. jdm b16 head equipped with a skunk 2 manifold and DC header. i know buddy club offers a cam package with spec 3 cams, cam gears and valve springs. would that be a good upgrade or should i get valves too? need your help asap.

Id stick with OEM personally. ITR intake valves are an upgrade from your stock B16 intake valves.
No need really to upgrade valves IMO on your build.

I agree with PyroProblem on the valves. I would look into getting a better header as well (rmf narrow replica would be a good bang for the buck for your build). There is such a large selection of cams it really depends on what you're looking for out of the engine and your budget. No matter what your choice, just make sure to get it tuned.
