Question What cam to buy????

Hi, I'm new here you guys. I have a 98 camaro Z28 with mods on it. I want to put a cam in it. It has Long Tubes headers and ORY. Bought the LS6 intake but have not yet installed it yet.
THe cam that interests me is TSP 231/237. I know you guys have more expierence and dealt with all sorts of cams on your personal car. What cam should I look at and buy? Want to build a quick street car. My car is a dialy driver. Drive my car all around town. And want to be able to drive car on long trips if I have to. CAN YOU GUYS HELP ME OUT HERE ?????

It's hard to find a cam that is the best of both worlds. A cam that I think you would like very well though, is our "Street Thumper 236" The specs are 236/236 @ .050 .551/.600 with a 113 lobe sep. We also have a 228/236 if you would rather have a split duration. Let me know if I can help!!

Default Hey KJ@SPDC

What horsepower specs am I looking at with those cams that you recommended. Also looking for a choppy Idle like that TSP 231/237.
Let me know please.
