Those small valves combined with a long stroke and lower flowing heads will probably need a cam on a 110-108 LCA. If you have 11.7 compression, go with the 108 LCA. If the compression is 10.5, go with a 110 LCA. I would not go above 110*.
Since it is a stroker it will also need to be a cam with a small base circle.
The exhaust on that cam will need extra time to flow through that exhaust system. Look for no less than a 10* seperation for exhaust.
I would look for a cam with an intake duration around 220-224. With exhaust at 230-238.
Since you have 3.73 gears, I would go with a better intake, like an RPM or such. You will rap out that smaller cam pretty quick. You could go with a bigger cam if you had n intake more suited for higher RPM or better flow.
