Edelbrock Performer EPS or RPM intake?

I'm going to rebuild my SBC 350 this winter. I'm going to build it as close to GM Performance Parts 350 H.O. engine. It makes 330 HP and 380 FT. LBS. of torque which is right where I want to be.

I'm going to keep my compression ratio as close to 9.0:1 as I can. Use a Vortec style heads with 170cc intake runners.

I'm looking at a few different cams.
GMPP 350 H.O. cam, 212/222 dur @ .050, .435/.460 valve lift, 112 LSA, to 5500 RPM.
Lunati 256/262 cam, 213/219 dur @ .050, .454/.468, 112 LSA, 1000-5500 RPM.
Comp Cams XE256H, 212/218 dur @ .050, .447/.454, 110 LSA, 1000-5200 RPM.
I think these cams would work best with the EPS Vortec intake.

I looked as these two cams as well.
Lunati 262/268 cam, 219/227 dur @ .050, .468/.489, 112 LSA, 1400-5800 RPM.
Comp Cams XE262H, 218/224 dur @ .050, .462/.469, 110 LSA, 1300-5600 RPM.
I think these two cams would well with either the EPS or RPM Vortec intakes. What do you guys think?

The car is a 78 Camaro, TH350, 3.42 gears, 1 5/8" full length headers, 2 1/2" full length Flowmaster dual exhaust system. It's going to be a daily driver/mild street performance car.

Thanks!
 
I also kind of figured that GMPP 350 H.O. gets the power I want, I might just be better off using the same cam they use, or at least something close to it. I was thinking that for that RPM range the EPS intake might work pretty well.

your correct if your goal is more to arrive at a street friendly combo and not concentrate on the upper rpm, and peak power curve
