Don't go any higher on the duration but you could increase the lift .025-.050".

You really need to call rmbuilder. Everything else is just an educated guess. I would say you want more lift.

Would run 1.8s or 1.85s on it.

Sounds like a decent cam but the lift is low. Maybe that's so you can use the stock Chevy roller lifters.
