Default Cam?

what would be the best cam to put in with a stock motor. Just looking to have a little lop in the car and maybe an extra 30hp I have some good ideas but any advice would be great

Without knowing the other details, something like a 224 or 228 cam might suit you well

any 224 cam will easily give you 30+ hp and will sound pretty good with good driveability

What about this FMS Custom Grind Camshaft - 230"/232" .595"/.585" 112LSA - I heard of people really liking the Futral cams and you can run them with stock heads just a drop in and go type came.

That cam would be fine for stock heads as well, but it's getting a little more on the aggressive side
