Good cam for stock motor?
I have a stock 2000 camaro LS1 manual 6 speed with the exception of a Loudmouth 1 Cat-back. Im looking for a cam that wont drastically effect the emissions output of my vehicle and that will make good power but still be driveable on a daily basis.

Would it be wrong to suggest the stock cam?
How much do you want to start replacing? I imagine you don't mind changing the valve springs or pushrods.
Are you somewhere where they actually do emissions testing? How much is good power to you and how much can you tolerate drivability wise? There is a spectrum. Some people daily what others might think is a bit ridiculous for the street.
A 220ish duration cam from TSP or TR is more or less a classic choice for people with daily drivers though.

I just installed a tsp torquer v2 112 on my dd, 00 ss m6 and I love it. motor is stock except for valve springs, pushrods, kooks lt's, tsp true duals, ls6 intake & p&p tb. sounds mean as hell, pulls hard, with it being tuned right and 3.73 gears, its very street friendly for my standards, however I am not worried about being emmisions legal lol (no cats, no egr, and no air)

All of the above would be decent in an auto. Stall would be worthwhile. You would have a little bit more to do with idle tuning, but it shouldn't be a big deal.
I have toyed around with the idea of something like the EPS truck cam from above but on like a 110 or 111 LSA...
