Default sleeper cam?

Can anyone point me in a good direction for a sleeper cam? This is for my girlfriends car its a stock m6 02 ss. So far I have a set of 1 3/4 pacesetters for it and a 3 inch ory. I also have a ls6 cam for it but want to go a little bigger. She doesn't want anything crazy like my car just maybe 380-400 wheel basically cam only. I figure 380 is attainable but 400 might be stretching it. You can still hear some lope from my turbo cam witch is a 224 224 on a 116 lsa so I'd like to have it smaller than that I want this thing to look stock and sound stock o yeah it'll also probably be on a 150 dry shot and will be flowing through the stock cme. In short what I'm asking for is a no lope cam thatd hell me make 380+ wheel before the spray

Thanks in advance guys

I'd say a 224 on a 118 LSA. Longtubes will make it tough to keep the stock sound.

I hope you have a stock cat-back on it. LT's and an ORY will make it tough to conceal just about any cam.

224/224 116 = -8* overlap
214/220 115 = -13* overlap (OMC)
214/230 117 = -12* overlap (CheaTR)

Either TR cam would work well, with the OMC probably being better for LT's. You can probably tweak VE's from there to improve a little on that. Spread the LSA a bit to 117, add 4 degrees to both intake and exhaust, and you should make a few more HP without any more overlap.

218/224 117 = -13* overlap

I had the LS6 cam or something very similar before and it sounded stock..just keep it and put a lil bit of Spray on it..

Id say with my LS6 and Longtubes/Fast/ it would have put a good 365+ down..

216/224 115lsa, it has an Overlap of -10.00 Degrees.
Crane used to make that grind, and you can still get it.

I have a ls6 cam in my t/a, sounds stock and could tell an improvement over stock. You could do the ls6 cam and some 1.8 rockers, should make for a nice gain.
