1969 442 cam replacement

I need help finding a replacement cam for my 1969 olds 442 with 400 ci 325 hp engine with type c iron heads. It has 10.5:1 cr, automatic tranny with standard stall, A/C, and power boost brakes. I would like to run pump grade gas 93 octane but not against using a octane booster. It is a convertible so it would be driven a lot in the summer. I called up Mondello and they recommend JM-18-20 with their lifters and valve springs and a Tr-252 timing chain set. Comp Cam recommends Magnum 270H. Would like the car 2b still fun to drive smoke wheels at light etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would check with Greg Rolin at Supercarsunlimited.com call him and he will really help. He is a great guy who has done Olds stuff for decades.
