Decide how much of your time is spent at 80-90 mph, then how much is spent at lower speeds, such as how much time do you spend around town and such. I think, if you go bigger than 29-30 you'll be sorry, because of the loss of lower speed usefulness.
Even tough you have "cammed" your engine,(you don't say which cams), most cams add power at the higher RPM range and you could be gearing down below the power peak, defeating your objective. Make sure you keep the stock cog, in case you want to go back to it.

Andrews N4 is for stock or modified applications, have a slightly higher idle speed, can be used w/ stock hydraulic lifters and springs, and have 2500 - 6000 rpm range
...

A S/E ignition would have let you run up to 7000 rpm's
