Default Cam for me?

01 firebird formula 4k stall long tubes,ory into dynomax bullit with turn down before rearend,lid,85mm maf,comes with ls6 intake,umi tubular pan hard bar and control arms with relocation brackets,stock 3.23 gears for now going to 3.73 or 3.90,stock 241 heads going to swap 243s after this season

I want the cam to still be a streetable cam but willing to sacrifice some streetabilty for better ET'S..I want to stay away from a custom cam if possible I want to show people how well ls motor react to a good cam swap off the shelf

I don't understand why you are stuck on an 'off the shelf' cam. If you are going to pay for something wouldn't you want the best product for your money? If the best cam for your goals happened to be a custom grind then you wouldn't get it? Anyway, there are a ton of site sponsor vendors with good 'off the shelf' grinds, give some of them a call.
