I guess main decision is what you want it for. i.e. fast road, race etc. Don't be tempted to put a fast race cam in if your daily driver! been in a mini years ago where this had been done. My mate had to keep revs at about 2500rpm at traffic lights just to keep it going - looked/sounded TOO boy racer!!  :grin:

i have the usual flowed head (at least the car has)throttle body mod and bigger pistons so i should hopefully be able to sacrifice a little bit of torque for some power further up the revs the car is quite heavy so it musnt be too revvy in other words i want it all  :cry:  maybe i should have gone for that 20v turbo conversion :evil:
