camshaft again 120-130

Hello All
I am thinking about camshafts again
Firstly, what constitutes a 'modern'camshaft grind. Is it a difference in lobe separation or a different ramp profile
I have an "R"cam in one of my cars
How does a modern grind compare to the R
I see talk of the Schneider 274
what are its advantages
of the KG trimning KG10
its advantages
of the Enem 19
advantages
are these three considered modern grinds
I have 2.1 litre
mild head work
twin 45 webers
all things being equal Would one of the above produce better results than the R cam
I would like power to come on 2000 to 2500 rpm and up to 6000 (and beyond?)
I tried roller rockers, but with the R profile they were too noisy
may revisit this one
are you engine builders using the 274 instead of the euro grinds
i want to try something different and modern(if its going to be better) before i am too old to appreciate it
Big questions i know and am looking forward to being enlightened
Thanks in advance
