Default Cam Choice?

Looking for some input on this.

The current engine has a blown headgasket, so as long has I have to pull the engine (it has head studs, not bolts) I'm going to slip in a new 514 crate motor. Anyway, that's the excuse I gave the wife, and I sticking to it unless I can come up with a better one.

The current engine is a 466BB with a Crane Cams 359351 hydraulic roller. Not a bad cam, but I want something with a little more lope to it. Spec's on the Crane cam is .590/.614 lift, 228/238 duration.

The hydraulic flat tappet cam that comes with the 514 seems pretty nice, but I would really like a hydraulic roller. Has anyone replaced there stock cam with a roller a hydraulic roller?

Any input will be appreciated.

Thanks
