Default cam pro's needed

Im about to stroke my 454 to a 4.25 crank, depending on how much bore it needs but im guessing it will end up a 496, I was thinking of 9.0 pistons, it has the 88 heads, merlin single plane intake, holley 850 and it will be getting a pro charger with 5-7 psi. what cam should i pick?

Call Bob Mardara at Marine Kinetics in N.Y. aka "RMBuilder" here on OSO. He's the guru cam man, and he will take all the guess work out of making the correct cam selection for YOUR combination. Many here on OSO have used Bob over the years. (585) 654-8583

+1000 on the board.
I have built several Stokers, including my two newest engines.
What he charges for a custom made cam is CHUMP change.

You might want to think about aluminum heads with the Procharger.
