I'm thinking that cam is going to be overkill. Remember too much cam will actually hurt your setup.

There are hundreds of cams to choose from, I'd rather let someone else with some experience give suggestions, Ive only ever ran 1 cam in 1 setup so I don't really want to say much lol.

That would work but you're not going to see the gains you want from it.
