Default Opinions on this cam

Hey guys,
I've read the cam guide and I'm trying to learn a little about cams and need your help and opinion.
What do you think about this cam.

Intake lift .581
Exhaust lift .581
Intake Duration at .050 224
Exhaust Duration .050 220
Lobe separation 116 GRIND# MTI-STEALTH2 CAM

My motor right now is basically stock except for bolt-ons and I am planning on getting LTs and exhaust.

I still want good street drivability but some added power.

Would this work or would a different cam work better for me?

thanks for the help

Get LTs and exhaust first before you even consider getting a cam.

for daily driver I would stay under 230 dur. and 112 lsa or more or you will shake like a maniac, rough idle I would think anyway.
