It's up to you how high you want to go. If you want more power, then go w/ 1.7's. You'll need to make sure you have notched pistons or you'll end up breaking something.

W/ that cam, 1.6's should be enough, though. Do a Google for a valve lift calculator (i don't remember the formula). that will show you what your lift w/ be w/ 1.7's.
