I hang out a hotrodders.com and one of the moderators can DynoSim what you have to at least see what the hp and torque curves would look like.

I looked at the cam and my first thought was a tighter lobe seperation angle, so that the engine will build up more pressure down low. Like go from 114 degrees to 108-110 degrees, maybe even tighter. The motor will be more responsive.

Just a thought.
