Skunk2 and BC both make good quality cams and head internals. You typically need to upgrade the valves, springs and retainers if you go above a stage 1 cam and add an EMS.

BC charges right about 300 for a custom spun cam for a d series. You tell them what you got done and they can make one to your likeing. And they will sell you valves and springs and retainers to go with
