Which cam for this setup??

ALright guys i ordered a cam about 6 weeks ago and it seems as though the bastard isnt going to send it so i need to go ahead and order one.My set up is:409 smallblock with a superram,edelbrock hiflo intake,58mmTB,1.6 RRs,headers,30LB injectors etc.Hopefully that is enough info for yall to help me.The cam that i ordered and never recieved was an LPE 219/219.A few people i talked to said that i need more cam.I kind of would like to stick with an LPE cam since they were designed for the superram but will consider all suggestions.Thanks for any and all help.

I agree, the LPE cam is a bit too small for ya. I would go with the more radical or the SLP cams (224*/232* @.050), or maybe the LT4 Hot Cam, but I would go with the SLP, its a good value too from Summit, like $270 or so.
