I found 4 cams on Comp's website for your application. Look under "mechanical roller".

The ones with the power range you're looking for all had over .600" lift. That's getting kinda steep....and most of them had "radical idle" next to them...due to the fact that all of them had a 110 degree lobe separation....or less. So there's a good deal of overlapping when the exhaust and intake valves are open.... But a radical idle is awesome in my book.

Go to the very bottom of this page:

If you're gonna be zipping up at high rpm's a lot....you might wanna look into having the block drilled and tapped for 4 bolt mains...or use a main girdle. Don't skimp on the bottom end.
