it all depends on what you are willing to put up with? is the car a daily driver? i have a Lunati 242/242 .595 .595 112LSA in a C5 Corvette, it jerks you around at a stoplight but if you ask me its worth it. Lost some bottom end power but made good top end.

You could also look at our time proven 224 cam. It has been and still is our most popular cam for years. Great for a daily driver and about 400 to the wheels. There are many full weight street cars running that cam going mid 11's at the track.
Thanks,

Looks like everyone is steering you in the right direction here. Avoid the temptation to go bigger than you need. 220 to 228 is the sweet spot for street driven power, and will still make big power on the top end, if the VE's are selected carefully.
If you haven't seen it yet, there's lots of good information here:
Do any shops market SMALL cams any more? Why not?
