Default 445 Build

After much soul searching I decided to go FE in my new cobra project partly because I discovered and dug out an old 361 from a cab over truck on the farm. I torn down the engine and delivered to the local machine shop for cleaning and inspection. The block has been determined to be crack free and I am waiting for a cylinder mapping to determine if it can be bored and stroked to a 445.
I am looking for some cam ideas for this motor. It will be a street car. TKO 600, 350 gears, and 15 inch tires. I would love to see a smooth strong power band up to 6200 rpm and idle at 800 to 1000 rpm. I would love it to be a tigress in the bedroom, a chef in the kitchen, and a lady in public.
I have looked over the forum and there is a lot of info on cams but it appears to be older info.
Thanks for any input.
Mark
