I'm getting a 58mm for my 400 with an LT1 intake. If I were you I'd get a 58mm. AS&M, LPE, BBK/Edelbrock, Holley are all good. The BBK being the cheapest of them all.

Although I do think a compucam 2032 might be a little small for your motor. I'd look for a cam with at least 220/230 duration and above .500 lift to really take advantage of those AFRS and that LT1 intake. I went with a 240/250 and .520 .520 on mine.

If you're already running 110mph, and with those heads, 58mm all the way.

Some searches would go a long way to finding people's experiences with the various brands.

Better? I doubt it. I didnt get mine all that long ago... apparently they neglected to stick a card in my box that said "DONT REMOVE THE PAINT"
So far, after the painting fix, its been ok. I'd never even think about another from BBK, I'd get one from someone else.
