Default GENTLEMEN, is there a Hydraulic Flat-tappet equivalent to the LPE 219 cam

Like the topic states, is there a HYDRAULIC FLAT TAPPET cam that is similar in performance to the LPE 74219 cam? I TRUST and RESPECT the vast experience and knowledge that this board has, so that is why I even dear ask this question here.

The reason why I'm running FLAT TAPPET, is because I already have the majority of the parts for this engine, so this build-up will be fairly CHEAP :chevy I would like to run this information on DD2000, for a 406 TPI I'm building for a 92 CHEVY SUBURBAN. I might even install a SUPER-RAM upper on the 406 at a latter date. The 406 will have the following parts:

2-bolt studded 509 casting block with a 9.015" deck, which should yield 9.7:1 CR with a .039" head gasket.
New 4.155" KB-168 22cc dished pistons
New SCAT 9000 CAST 400 SBC crank
New LT-1 "PM" 5.7" rods
Fully Ported 1990 Vette heads with 2.00" FERREA's and 1.5" MANLEY's, with 60 cc chambers
Ported Edelbrock TPI base
Ported Plenum
Ported SLP runners
COMP CAMS 1416 1.6:1 ROLLER TIP rockers
52mm T.B.
24# LT-1 injectors
HEDMANN P/N 69094 1-1/2"-1/5/8" TORK-STEP headers, and 2.5" true-duals.

I'm looking for very close to 500 FT/LBS TORQUE at the crank. I already have a USED CRANE COMPU-CAMS 2050, with 216/228 @.050, and .454/.480, (1.0 IVO, 35.0 IVC, 51.0 EVO, -3.0 EVC), this cam is ok according to DD2000, but I was wondering if someone knows of another HYDRAULIC FLAT-TAPPET CAM with better TORQUE figures. This SUV will also be used to TOW my car to ROAD RACE EVENTS in NEVADA :D:D:D. Thanks for any help you guys can give me on a FLAT TAPPET CAM that will work for me. ALL REPLIES ACCEPTED :flag
