Power step down :(

So in my young and dumb infinite wisdom I put a much to large CAM into my car.... now after people told me I would have issues and after two years of me saying NO NO NO.... guess what... YEP

Destroyed my valve retainers... so I currently have an Edelbrock Performer RPM Roller Cam, I need some good advice and what a sorry sorry fool would need, that will still work with stock chevy 350 heads....(# 14102193).

This is going to be a daily get to school and back driver, not a race car, more a cruiser, kids back and forth to school and daycare.

So some real serious (ole man, dad) needs to go into this, CAM is the cheapest way to get the job done, so whats the best one for what I need. I dont want to be stock if I can avoid it, but if need be so be it.

Thanks for the Part Number and video, for a stock 350 that sounds just about as good as it can.
