390 with cj heads- dual quad- RPM cam?

It has a recent edelbrock performer cam and intake now but now I am putting a blue thunder dual quad intake with edelbrock 600's on it. While I have the intake off I am wondering if the cam should be changed. I know the quad set up only will give me marginal power gains but the car is just for cruising and showing with the occaisional burn-outs. Although I want it to be quick off the line. I wasn't all that happy with the performer set up and I always wondered if I should have gone with the RPM. But my research was telling me that a bigger car should go with the regular performer because it had lower torque. But now with the duel quad intake, Should I go for a different cam? (RMP, CRANE)? Thanks
