Default Cam Ideas?

Im looking to put a cam in my car but have no idea what one i would go with. I was wondering what your recommendations would be. All im looking for is something that will give it a little bit of a choppy sound but still idle good maby a little rough and pick my car up a little.

I have a Stock 6.0 LQ4 Bottem end and a set of stock 5.3L 862 heads. I also have the factory 6.0 317 heads that i could put back on if yall think that would be a better option to make more HP http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...ech/secret.gif . lol Thanks
