My thoughts would be Andrews 57. You will also need a new tuner like a power commander. If it's a reman motor not sure if the lifters need to be updated and if adjustable push rods need to be added.

As has already been stated, I think it's a no brainer. To me it would add value to the bike.

103--Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.........

Everybody keeps talking about these cams, can anybody recommend any good ones to put on there?

If the local HD shop is doing the 103" kit, as mentioned the Andrew 57 is a good choice, but if you could get the HD shop to install thinner head gaskets to bump the compression up(.030" head gasket vs .045" HD head gasket) then maybe some Andrews 54 or Woods 555 cams would be nice.
