Cam Question. Ok I've searched and read for the past 4 hours, but there are just so many threads and I just have a few specific questions.
My car is my DD and will only be seeing bolt-ons. After I complete my exhaust I'm thinking about going with a cam. Something I'm guessing from the reading I've done around a 224/224 possibly. What's the best lift? I've seen some 224/224 cams with .575 of lift and some with about .588 or so. Which do you think I should go with?
I'm really just looking for a decent sized cam that will make great power with stock heads. Driveability is an issue because it's my DD, but I am looking for some type of lope.
Can you guys give me some suggestions. I'm been looking into Thunder Racing, Futural, and TSP cams. As of late I've been hearing a lot of good things about Futural.
Thanks in advance.

I like your sig. I have a Trans Am myself....not a WS6. my formy was a ws6...decided to save some money this time around lol.
now about cams.....the 224 cams aren't really different from eachother except from the lobes they use. personally i like cam motion lobes(Futral uses them). the difference between 575 and 588 lift isn't too much, but enough to notice after 35k miles.

Haha thanks man I got that **** all the time (regarding my sig).
But excuse my ignorance, but what would happen after 35K miles to notice a difference b/w the two lifts?
