stock cam would work but a budget upgrade would be an 02+ z06 cam that can be found cheap used on vette forums. Best ar would be a .96 on the mp t70 and 60lb injectors from poweraddersolutions.com are a good value and would work for your needs. I have all these and in my last setup i was able to go 7.0 in the 1/8th on around 6-8 pounds.
