Venders please chip in! Cam packages

Hello I am looking to purchase a cam shortly as of now I am currently looking at the Night Fury Cam and TSP 229/23, however I am open to different cams that produce similar power and still maintain drive ability. I typically drive about 50/50 on highway and city but it isn't normally bumper to bumper traffic. My typical rpm range is prob 1600-2000. My goal out of this CAM is to reach 460+rwhp while the idle not being ridiculous loud and a minimum amount of chopping. I recently got my car dyno and with Kooks LT, K&N CAI, Heat extractor hood, and Borla S-Type Catback I got 400. I am a broke 19 year old college student and searching for the best cam package, which can either just consist of all the parts, or if someone is located in Illinois, Indian, Wisconsin, or Michigan and I can drive to for an install/dyno.

When I said "Major Transformation", I meant under the hood, performance wise.

We can certainly have a custom ground cam made for you that will do exactly what you want and need it to while still making great power gains.

What does that include? Is that only the installed price of the cam, or does that include rockers, lifters, springs, oil pump, timing chain, etc?

That includes everything, including labor. At least that's what I was told.
