I've always liked those 041 clones with Rhoads lifters.

But, with reg lifters, you might like the Howards version. It has less adv duration.

But, if you really don't plan to go over 5500, then the Crower 60243 should be plenty of cam.

Even a Summit 2802 should go 5500.

But, with your exhaust flow, a single pattern might work well. There are lots of single patterns. I'm thinking there's no need to go over 230 degrees dur @ .050 lift, for a 5500 rpm redline. And, most say a 112 or more LSA will give more vac and a better idle. But, I'd say go at least 110 LSA. CC & Lunati make single patterns with 230 @ .050, & 110 LSA. Either of these should do what you want.

The Crane 10508 has 228 @ .050, with a 112 LSA.

I'm assuming that you realize one good 800 Q-jet, will probably be a better choice, as would 1 3/4" tube headers. But I also assume you have a reason for using those you listed. So, that's all I'll say about that.
