Default New to LSX's would a cam swap be worth it?

I have a 99 WS6 which currently has the following

Built auto with a 3800 stall
Torquer V2
PRC stage 2.5 5.3 heads
TSP 1 7/8" longtubes and TSP x pipe
Fast 92/92
Stock gears
150 shot

I am wondering if the car would benefit from a larger cam? If so what would you recommend? I want something that sounds more aggressive.

what LSA is your cam on? because it seems like you have a pretty badass setup as is

i would keep it how it is, if you wanted to change the cam i would for sure go custom grind but thats alot of work for not that much gain imo,would you gain yeah but like i said i dont think its worth it, i think there are other things you can change that would be better,maybe add gears
