I agree with what John Mc has said.

I don't know what engine you have now but the 1st thing I would want to know is what induction you plan on using? If it's a D-Jet car I would use a D cam or an aftermarket one that is similar in size (like an Isky Street Torque)

As John Mc says there is no Magic Cam. When I learnt what I know about B20's I was lucky enough to have friends with cam grinders, dynos & flow benches. I have used factory performace & works cams from mini's, datsuns, toyotas & even Big block Chev factory profiles as well as some from Isky, Crane & Reed.

What makes a car go is it's cylinder head. If I were you I would queue up for one of John Parker's heads. A Good Head + a D grind cam will outperform any Stock head + any Performace cam everytime & do so in an economical fashion.
