Default Cam and headers?

I want to add a CAM and Heads to my SS, But it wont pass smog, and i live in CA, How much work would it take to put the car back to stock, Or are there any CAM Legal worth putting in the car...? Headers will take a couple hours to do but I am sure about a CAM.

Also i cant decide what kind of exhaust i want.. I like the sound of the SLP LM but any other good ones out there?

just make sure when you get the cam to get an awesome tune, you dont need cats to pass the sniffer if you have a good enough tuner

Any cam under 230's duration should be smog acceptable. Get some shorty headers, a hot cam, and some LS6 heads. Done.
