You got 516 cubes, you got brodix heads , you got dry exhaust. Give them a cam they deserve .
okay , I will shop for a cam, any ideas with what you mentioned?

I"m not a cam expert, I have always left that up to everyday professionals. I would call Bob @ Marine Kinetics. If you call him; have your head part# along with flow #s, compression ratio, exhaust type, and rpm window.
