I'd just say smaller will be better for you, avoid the temptation to put a monster cam in there, you need good midrange torque to move that car.
something in the neighborhood of 225 degrees @ .050" lift on the intake is about what I would be looking for. Your engine builder probubly has a pretty good recommendation as to what cam you ought to run with your combo, you trust him to do everything else so perhaps you should trust his advice on cam choice. I can admit I have gone back to my machinist and bought a second camshaft after picking "just the right one" and I got the cam he tried to sell me in the first place.
