Question good cam for stock motor?

I have a 2000 SS 6 speed car. mods are: air lid, all the free mods, modified throttle body, dynotuned with HP tuners, 4:10s, and no cats. i want a cam that will give it an extremely choppy idle, but will work good with a stock setup.....any suggestions??? this car is my daily driver.

12.97@110mph 1.98 60ft

8.39@88mph 1.88 60ft at the eighth mile track

all on 18 inch foose wheels with street tires

Texas Speed 228R Camshaft with a 112 lsa should do the trick for you...

I'd get some headers before a cam if I were you.

amen to that, you need to let that cam breath or its worthless, but you can always do a cheater cam but then you will not have the hard idle like you said you wanted.
