Great question... this is something I am debating right now! I need to find the right cam for my 370. Have you looked at any Futral cams? F14.....

get the x4 with with a 4400 stall and 373 gears. excellent combo, and what "low end" are you talking about? you'll have to get a 4k+ stall to go with any of those cams you mentioned.

i have a 4k stall and the stock cam, whenever i want to go fast on the "low end" i push the pedal and the engine comes to life, only time any low end is used is on the highway after the converter locks up. it still pulls good at 2,500 to pass someone, almost any aftermarket cam will give better numbers than the stock cam @ 2,500 rpm..
