Default Which cam to go with other than Hotcam

I would like to get a cam for my 2002 z28 m6. The cam needs to be reliable and good for a daily driver. I want the cam to have an agressive idle, but still be reliable. I do like the way hotcam idles, however i do not like many of the things i have read about it. Everyone always says that there are a lot of cams out there which would be better to go with than the hotcam, but what are they? I would greatly appreciate any of your suggestions.
Thanks in advance

Chad you might also consider our new 225 camshaft... Here's dyno results from a 225 cam M6 car with stock heads

The idle is as much dteremined by LSA as lift and duration - any of the smaller cams with a 112 will give you a nice chop and be driveable.
