For my bike - TW-222 or SE-585 cam? Full stage 1, 103HO engine...
My bet would be that the TW222 has more TQ at 2K but the 585 beats the 222 everywhere else. Say from 2500.. It really depends on how the cams work with the pipes. IMO they will be close.

Should I be concerned with the additional 0.030 lift?

I would not be.. The ramps on SE cams are generally quieter and softer than the Woods stuff.
