Default 454 cam selection

ive got a 81 silverado with a mildly buit 454, 9:1 compression, bored .060 over, Edelbrock Performer intake and Performer 750 manual choke carb, RV cam 218/485.stock torque converter. 4.10s. i drag race it during the summer in the street legal class and am looking to install a bigger cam a little better suited for the strip. Ive been told i could go as big as a 240/560, but that seems a little aggressive without changing my intake, stall etc. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm assuming you are wanting to keep your stock torque converter?
