I would go with the SLP 51002 cam.(206/212@.050)Although its kinda pricey($340)In my opinion its the best cam on the market for a stock TPI 305.

I agree with what black5.7GTA said. My friend used that exact cam on his 89 RS with TPI 305, his only other mods were a flowmaster cat-back and a high flow cat.
