Yes, after messing with my 261 a bit I figure that the best way to make it perform is to modify it so it can rev higher, then worry about the cam. The rods and pistons limit that right now on my engine.
I think the order of mods on a 261 should be:
1. Intake and exhaust (these are quite restrictive even on a stocker)
2. Increase compression
3. Forged rods and pistons, and a good balance job to let it rev higher
4. head flow work
5. Moderate but not wild cam
6. Extreme stuff like 12 port head
