Default Camshaft for 1300 Kent

We will be running a Mk1 1300GT in Group N and having trouble identifying the best options for a race engine camshaft.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Welcome to the forums roscohrt, sorry I can't help you with specific advice other than go to a camshaft specialist with your engine specs and what you want from the cam. I'm not sure that too many of the "traditional" grinds will cut the mustard for racing these days.
