There are plenty of Cheater cams out there. Check out TSP they make a great one. Sounds and idle like stock but produces tons of power.

Look into cam with a larger LSA 114-116 deg.. that will help bleed off some of that choppy idle.

Give the cam manufactors tech line a call or email them.. they will recommend you something from there line of cams will suit your requirements.

Thunder Racing Custom Camshaft
"CheaTR" - 214/230 .601/.575 117 LSA. Off Idle-6800 RPM Power Band. Broad power range. Works well with stock exhaust manifolds and catalytic converters. Stock like idle. Minor tuning required on automatic transmission cars. Responds very well to nitrous. Due to the fast ramp rate of this camshaft, the use of 1.8 rockers is not recommended. Double valve springs and titanium retainers required for this cam.

Hope this helps....
