That was quick. You posted you wanted a ported and polished head five minutes ago.

Purely on personal preference I would go for Newman Cams. http://www.newman-cams.com/catalogue.html

I had them on my Mini Cooper S and also Lotus Elise.

I have Newman 260 cams fitted in a 2 litre good for 173 bhp, I don't personally think when you look at profile and lift there is not a lot between different makes
