somethin like this should make you happy
Summit # CL12-210-2 Basic Operating RPM Range: 1,500-5,500 Intake Duration at 050 inch Lift: 218 Exhaust Duration at 050 inch Lift: 218 Duration at 050 inch Lift: 218 int./218 exh. Advertised Intake Duration: 268 Advertised Exhaust Duration: 268 Advertised Duration: 268 int./268 exh. Intake Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.454 in. Exhaust Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.454 in. Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.454 int./0.454 exh. lift Lobe Separation (degrees): 110 Intake Valve Lash: 0.000 in. Exhaust Valve Lash: 0.000 in. Grind Number: CS 268H-10 It'll be quite a bit healthier than stock, still work well with stock heads, idle decent with a little growl, provide enough vaccum, and get decent MPG. All strictly my opinion. Im sure you'll get many.
