Default Good cam for ls2 gto

Does anyone have any cam suggestions for a mostly stock gto? Other than a kooks exhaust and tune it is stock.

It's a m6 occasional driver, It will mostly be a street warrior with a few track passes

Lot's of choices here. Before my buddy did some high dollar heads to his LS2 GTO, he ran a torquer V2 cam in his 6-speed car, and it ran great. I ran that cam as well on my old LS1 setup, and liked it

Do you recall what kind of numbers he put down with the cam only?

I'd suggest 3.90 or 4.11 gear with any of these cams,

I'd also look at the BTR, NA LS1/2 Stg 3 ( 231/242 .617"/.588" 112+2)

Hmmm I believe I'm gonna hold off on the cam for a bit and upgrade the gears, I was thinking 3:83's just because I like my mpg lmao.
