There are many variables you're leaving out when choosing a cam. Will you be street racing or drag racing more. On the weekends are these highway drives or prowling the strip drives. Just to be in the middle I say get the MS3 111-113 (depends on if you ever plan on running nitrous), w/ the PRC Gold .660 springs, ls2 chain and sprocket, ported ls6 pump, cometic .040 head gaskets (if they will clear w/o flycutting w/ the AFRs) hardened 7.400 pushrods, LS7 lifters, and an underdrive pulley w/ belts.
Making the most power w/o harming your engine, as well as driveability, is predicated upon your tune. Get a good tuner and you'll be set to throw in whatever cam you choose! Have fun.
