Which HPE Cam to get?

Alright guys im looking at picking up a cam, and i seen in the GM High Tech that HPE sells the LS1 Cam kit for like $725 or $775 cant remember exactly. But now im wondering what cam i should go with? I was really thinking the S cam. Its gonna be in a bolt on LS1 6 speed car. This car is gonna be driven too. Im not really worried about it being too too violent, cause my buddy is gonna tune it for me, so i want a pretty decent sized cam thats gonna be good throughout the RPM range. Soo if anyone has any suggestions, that would be awesome
Thanks

HPE makes a few cams. We put the S-cam, 115 LSA in an LS1 GTO, he made 382/362 without a tune. He still has the restrictive stock exhaust. They also have a 113 LSA version and a new C-Cam. Give them a call.

The S cam is an excellent cam and proven performer especially if you are going to be running cam only for a while. Good luck!!!
