I have the GSC's (272/264) and most of you know how my car pulls, Eli has the BC's and likes them a lot. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them, although I don't know anything about the Helix cams.

I gathered that from your description, that doesn't affect how well they work or don't work though. Being hollow will allow you a little more headroom with respect to rev limit since there is less rotating mass in the valvetrain. I only have hands on experience with the GSC's and BC's, and found them to be very similar in their power delivery. The BC's do idle nicer than the GSC's right out of the box however.

The only advantage of a hollow cam would be the weight savings vs a solid cam, which is probably not much.
Congrats on the cam purchase.

Speaking of cams....I am getting the Revolvers.....yeah baby! High lift here I come...These seem to be the hot ticket for smaller turbos and openend up intake and exhausts. They also, because of the lift, usually create a lot more torque and reduce spool time. Perfect for AutoX. Gotta love getting good deals on parts in EvoM.
I sure miss you guys. I miss racing so much that I broke down and bought an 1/8th scale RC truck and we race nearly every night. It's pretty fun. My truck was clocked by the MPs here going 46MPH. Not bad for a toy I guess. Heck at least I am racing.

You might as well have the head worked over when it's off to REALLY take advantage of the full potential of those cams.

I installed my BC's straight up with the stock cam gears. They seem to be perfect. Good idle and power.
The Revolvers were hard to come by for a while. Now Buschur has several sets and so do several others. I think they were just slow to produce them there for a while.
