If your not wanting to go to radical something like the TSP 231/237 cam would work pretty good along with the Patriot Gold springs(<---None better right now IMO). You will want a set of hardened pushrods and should probably look at a set of aftermarket rockers, I say this because the factory ones have a tendency to randomly spill their needle bearings. While your doing the cam you may as well replace the oil pump with a ported ls6 one and replace the timing chain with a rollmaster double roller, these are known to go out on the 98/99 cars. Good luck.
