Looking to switch between two amps on one cab. I am completely new in this area so any recommendations will be great.

That's pretty much it I think. A few guys are gonna say Lehle and a few are gonna say Radial. Just like clockwork. 
Would be kinda cool to have either. Oooh, I bet your Cali and 5150 would play real nice together.

Are you using effects, that will be driven by the selected amp?

The radial has issues with effects--read the manuals first.

The only 2 amp selectors on the market that I would trust my precious amps through and feel safe are
The Custom Audio Electronics switcher (This is the one I use)
And
Skrydstrup R&D AS44 Switcher
I heard that Suhr is working on putting one out, but don't think it's currently available.
Egnater used to have one, but is no longer producing them. You might find a used one out there

I use a noise gate and OD pedal in the signal chain and my delay through the amp's effects loop.

Then do NOT use ANY of the suggested switchers, but the ones I mentioned, or when you switch heads, the ongoing delay in the loop of your amp will make your amp go POOF along w/ the switcher, as it doesn't put a LOAD on the unused amp.

Still waiting on my Bradshaw amp switcher/interface. Been about 3 years now.

I think it takes a while to build the ones for semi loads of amps.

It only takes up 6 rack spaces......

Back to the OP, Lehle all the way m'man... Best product out there for its size and capabilities

He wants to switch between two heads and one cab. Lehle don't make a product for that (unless there is something new out). About the only pedal you can use is a Radial Headbone. As far as racked hardware, like the Guv said - Bradshaw, or Eggie is about it. You need a product you can trust though, that will switch with the load always present and fail to load. If you loose power, it needs to fail such that a load is always present on whichever amp is selected.
