Default whats a good cam for..

the stock stall?

i want my car to drive just like it does now just with some more power(louder than stock, but not obnoxious, stock idle, and no bucking in lower rpms like the bigger cams i've ridden in). I've seen the cheatr cam, but can't really find any other cams that would add a nice gain with stock driveability..

what are all the "stealth" cams out there?

the car is mainly street driven, i'm not looking for crazy numbers, but somewhere around the 400rwhp range.

i am also am planning on getting some ls6 heads milled to 61cc, with a fast 92/92 combo and full exhaust to help the heads and cam breathe better.

what cams should i look at? or should i look at getting a custom cam?

u should really get a stall before a cam. or atleast wait till u have enough funds to get a cam/stall done at the same time.

Our stinger cam drives great with a stock stalled auto. We have installed it in several LS1,LS2, LS3 cars. 224/230 113. Give me a call tomm and I can answer any questions you may have or I can design one to give you exactly what you are looking for.

seems to me that the 113 lsa would have a choppy idle? correct me if i'm wrong..

Cam and stall or stall then cam but not a cam only. It will do what you dont want it to do buck and die and might even be slower.
