How stock is it? If it's completely stock you will want to do other things before a cam.
-Cold air intake
-Headers and catback
-Gears (maybe)
-Stall (maybe)
I would say do a lot of reading...first the LT1 newbie stickies up top. If you are going to be looking into valvetrain components, then you would be well served to do tons of research first, or call up a guy who grinds cams all day and let him select all of your parts.
