It's really such a broad question.
A lot of thought goes into a cam selection based on the vehicle's weight, purpose, engine mods, driver's desires in a cam (rumpy idle, mileage, etc). It's hard for someone to just recommend based on a very open ended question.
I would recommend searching for 5.3/6.0 or ls1/2 cam selections and see what you find.

someone told me that running a stock LS2 cam in my 5.3 would work great with along with new valve springs.....does that sound about right....looking to make a bit more power adn sound a bit tuffer....

Personally, if I was going through all the trouble of a cam swap, I would want something better. There are much better cams out there.
Look into the tsp228r on 112 lsa or something close in specs to that cam.... maybe even something with split duration.
If you go that route, you'll probably want to do a converter to really get the most out of the cam.
