should i switch cams?

I currently have a xe 224/236 114lsa cam with stock heads. I recently just got a set of heads street ported stock valves blah blah blah. they flow in the .260 range @ .550 and 252 @ .600. This cam is a nice cam, but Im looking for something more. Im thinking of switching to a gm845 214/224 yes i know its smaller but hey smaller isnt always a bad thing, or possibly going to a cc306 i have all three cams. 224/236 in the car and the other two are just extras i have. I do typically street driving mainly and the car does see a 100shot of spray once and awhile. What cam would i benefit must from. Also run 3.90s in my rear. Keep in mine im looking most useble power range. Ive seen guys run 11s with the 845 so I may go with that, but people come on a yell at me and gimme ur opinions

I would leave it like it is and tune it to get the most out of it.

Haven't got enough info to give an opinion. Don't even know the CID.
