I would personally go with the 212/218 high lift Comp Cam if I were you, or maybe a TR 220 on a 114.

It's gonna be a dog down low. I promise

Even with my stall I hate anything below 4k rpm. It's gonna peak maaaybe 200rpm below mine (5,900 then flat to 6,500) but power doesn't really start till 4.5k.

On the top end it runs like a madman though
