Depends what street racing means in your area. The cam you listed will sound
pretty healthy and most likely cause would be takers to shrivel up. AFR heads
are definitely top notch but a real stealth setup would be to send your heads
to Advanced Inductions for a CNC port job.They can spec a matching cam that can be tuned to sound smooth with the right increase in compression
ratio.
You can pop your hood to show the factory head casting numbers and if
someone asks if it's cammed....brag that you put in a LS6 cam; then show
them the taillights of your 430 rwhp combo......

OP, if aren't too worried about being stealthy, you could go with our MS3 and a set of PRC 227cc cylinder heads. This camshaft would work great with your converter, and might have to sacrifice a little lowend but would be a beast on both the street and the strip. However, unlike the previously stated setup, there would be no question that something big was done.
