You don't want to be flamed all over but you give very little detail about your build. Forget about those cams if you're going to keep your stock heads and stock gears. You want your car to be fun but a gm847/cc306 without the proper supporting mods is going to be a dog on the street and nowhere near as fun as a smaller cam. Peak dyno numbers aren't everything. Having a car that's great to drive is more about average power/torque numbers across a given RPM range and a big cam just won't deliver if you don't have the right amount of flow.
Get heads and 4.10s or buy a cc503.

dur.@50 IN224 EX230
lobe lift IN340 EX340
valve lift IN510 EX510 with 1.5RR 550 with 1.6
IN C/L 104 open34 closed62 @.006

open pressure 310-320
i also have 1.6 roller RR new in the box no cheap sh** here but i will cut you a HE** of a deal for all. But i want a video/sound clip since i never used this cam. i paid $320 just for the cam and another 400 for the springs and RR just make me a offer and call it a deal

Hard to go wrong with a custom cam. I certainly wouldn't recommend my cam for your setup, but I'm sure Lloyd could recommend a good grind to give you those "big cam" characteristics while still making great power from your setup. I used the CC306 and I didn't have a problem with drivability or making power. Made 350rwhp through an auto tranny and I didn't even have EWP, RR's or cutouts.
