G5X2, G5X3, or G5X4.

You have a 6-speed with 4.10's, so you have a lot of potential and a lot of room to work with. I'd go with any of the three above, because you can get anywhere from 400-430rwhp and very streetable manners. All three of these are record setting cams at the track, work very well with stock or aftermarket heads, and will also respond VERY well to N20. The X2 will get you around 410rwhp, with the most low end, and is fairly smooth. The X3 is just as smooth, but a little more top end oriented, and will give you about 410-420rwhp with higher peaks than the X3. The X4, my favorite, will get you around 430rwhp (not guaranteed, but has heppened a few times), have the roughest idle (still streetable), and is a serious cam. Just search for Juggernaut and his records and you'll see how serious it is.

Cams and driveablity is in the tune and in personal perference (what your willing to put up with) get with a few local guys that have cams and either ride in there car or ask to dirve it... Me personaly i can tolerate a lot, but there is a lot of guys on here that if its anything more than stock... it isnt driveable anymore
