Id avoid texas speed like the plague, GPI or BTR are the most trustworthy in the game currently. For cams on an engine with stock Piston To Valve clearance you can go with a GPI LT SS3 cam, the GPI LT NFC cam(not a fan of this one) or a BTR 225 cam. Anything bigger will require flycutting, and obviously you need .660 springs in the heads for these cams.
GPI drop in kit holding up fine at 1059 WHP, FWIW. Pretty good testament to their kit’s quality IMO.
