Default A4 2:73 Cam question

Ok here is my setup:
1998 Z28-A4-2:73- MW3000 2.5 str-Jethot Lt's-Ory-Lid/filter
333hp/347tq mustang dyno
Here are my questions-
1. What cam? This is going to be 80% street, 20% track. Looking for streetable mid-range power, no need to be an extreme rever, nice sound/lope.

2. Is a gear change necessary ie 3:42, 3:73 to utilize the cam?

3. I currently run a 140 dry nitrous shot. With a cam, and dropping the shot to around a 125, will i see any fueling issues, providing that the car will be tuned?

Thanks for the help. I'm trying to get a few initial ideas/suggestions to do further research on the site.

there's a few people on here that have a cam and 2.73's, you'll be ok there with your stall. Gears will help you get more out of the cam by being able to rev quicker. You will have to upgrade the fuel system if you want to spray with a cam, at least I would, just to be on the safe side.
