"Stealthy" cam w/stock heads?
I'm looking for a cam for my M6 Camaro. I researched on here but can't find quite what I am looking for. I'm looking for an agressive cam with the least amount of lope because I don't want it to be too noticeable that i have a cam. Basically a street sleeper type cam, even though I don't street race. From my research it appears an F13 w/ 114 lsa, F11 w/ 114 lsa or possibly a couple other cams @ 115 lsa would be my best choice. There doesn't seem to be a ton of info on what I'm looking for because most people want the lopey/choppy idle and want everybody to know they have a cam. Either that or I'm not searching with the right search words. "Stealth Cam" only returned one page of results.
Here's what I'm doing. I have a stock "engined" M6 2002 Z28. Mods of consequence (ie affecting airflow into/out of the engine) are Hooker long tubes, FTRA, ported MAF ends, ported stock throttle body, SLP dual/daul exhaust with cutout. The car also has a 4.10 gear and RAM Powergrip clutch in it. I'm trying to find the best performance gain cam for this setup. I already have stock lenght chromoly push rods in it so I'd prefer to reuse those if I can. I'm not worried about HP/Torque numbers on the dyno. My concern is that I see a significant trap speed gain and hopefully corresponding significant drop in ET. The car only get's about 2-3K miles per year put on it so I'm not too worried about driveability.
Anybody have any suggestions?

I forgot to mention a couple of things. My goal is 11.5's (car has gone 12.4's @ 113 as it sits w/ stock manifolds) as I don't want to put a roll bar in it. Also, I have no intention of ever putting ported heads on it. However quick it is with this cam, springs & long tubes is as quick as it's ever going to be.
