240d camshaft

I am starting on a rebuild project on a 616 (1983)engine. This engine has a rebuilt short block with new pistons liners etc. Head and other parts are not done yet.

Since my current engine has a new intake manifold, custom made, and I have adjusted/tuned the IP these will go to the new engine. My plan is to build it to maximum horsepower without adding a turbo. I know this will not be hundreds of horsepower, but I do know that the gains on my current engine have been well worth it. Long term durability is important.

So with goal in mind what cam would you use? Would porting the head be of value? Headers? Any other ideas?
