Some will tell you to keep vvt and others will tell you to delete it. I personally just deleted both, dod and vvt. You have way more cam options when you delete them both. If I were you I would contact Cam Motion and get a custom grind.

Do you have a converter?

If not you really want to keep the cam small and don't want too much overlap.

218/226 115+3. -8* of overlap which should be plenty to maintain manners, and an early enough intake open and close for power to come on soon.

That cam sounds great for your build. I would agree that you should just delete AFM/DOD and VVT. Way more options and VVT cams don't do any good without a tuner who is a complete badass and knows VVT tuning really well.
