Default LS1 Cam

I know this question has been post probably a million times, but i am too lazy to search. I have a 98 A4 LS1. I want to have a new cam in by spring. What cam package would be best for me: I dont want super agressive, but i want to start it and have people say "god damn, wtf is that". What cam, how much, where can i get it, and what else do i need for a complete cam swap...... ALso...... where can i find a cheap good condition LS6 style intake manifold? I dont want to pay out of my *** just for the stupid intake manifold...... THANKS!!

use the search button, thats what i did. check out the sponsor sites, they have their cams listed and most of them have a guideline for setups needed. have you tried looking in the for sale section on the ls6 manifold? howbout local junkyards?

goodluck and do some research!

I have a line on a cheap LS6 intake in excellent condition, but I'm too lazy to type it up.
