Default 1UZ-FE Cams

After searching for information about cams for the 1uz, I came across pretty much nothing. However, I noticed a company named Kelford makes cams for this motor. My only concern is mine being the VVT-i and also if anyone has used their products on a VVT-i motor, their thoughts and comments about them are much appreciated as well as what grind you went with. TIA.

So basically what I've learned so far for the VVT-i motor seems to be...if you want it N/A...basically intake, headers, possibly pulleys, itb's and an exhaust are about it lol?. The other option being forced induction.

Yeah I heard of them, but it looked like all their cams were for the non VVT-i
