I'm not well versed regarding cam combinations for your engine, however, but based on your desire, I do know that to get more torque down low you need to increase displacement as much as possible and decrease the cam overlap.

Has any one tried a turbo cam on a large displacement engine and dynoed the combo?

I also agree with one of the other contributors, 12:1 compression is a bit high if your ultimate quest is to have a reliable torque monster.

I know that the following statement will get me in trouble, nevertheless, HP rules the straights, torque the corners, the rest is gearing.

Just my .02 cents.
