Default Cam advise - again

I am looking for a quiet cam with solid torque from 2000 until 5200 or so (who isn't?). I want a cam with no more than a 600 lift. My engine is a 107 that has a timkins in the bottom, stage 3 Hillside heads, an HPI 51 throttle body, and Fat Cats with an humongous Wood air cleaner. I have also installed some 188 Wood springs. I am not ready to pull the trigger on roller rockers and want to stay with the 07 chain cam drive. My current build is too noisy even though I am running only a 510 lift Wood 6-6. I am certain about the performance of my Wood cams - they're great, but I want less valve train noise. My current numbers are decent (111 hp and 117 tq). I am pleased with my torque curve ( gets over 100 at 2200 climbs to 117 at 4400 and gradually drops under 100 about 5800) and want to continue to have that early torque, still more torque would be nice. Any advice other than buy some good ear plugs?

Woods is a great cam, but does tend to be noisy. Check out Zippers redshift cams or Head Quarters cams, might have better luck with the noise.

SE's tend to be relatively quiet, from what I've gathered. Maybe a 211 or 203?
