cam help

i am getting ready to get my heads ported and wanted to go with a bigger cam. my cam specs are 230/236 .510/.520. i made 333whp and 312ft/lbs of torque. i did this with all mods in my sig except with a stock maf and 1.5 rockers. i was thinkin with the added airflow i could go with a bigger cam. peak power was around 6700rpm so i dont really want to spin it much higher. this car is my daily driver so no solid rollers. i like the rough idle so that doesnt bother me. this cam idles pretty rough already. if someone could shoot me some specs and maybe some dyno numbers if they have any. thanks in advance

Look for a little tighter LSA and a bit more lift. The ported heads will make a huge difference.
