Smart idea?
Those are both acceptable starter cams. The hot cam will have more lumpiness to it. Theyre both very small cams though. You may also look into a 224 cam, which would be a better performer.

If youre buying the package because its relatively inexpensive, then youre options are limited. But if you dont mind spring a couple hundred more you can get far better performing parts, and youll save yourself the labor of doing it a second time when you get bored of the hot cam.

What is your reason for going with the hotcam? Drivability, price, convenience of buying the package, etc...? Because, personally, I would not go with anyting smaller than a 224 cam (scuh as the TR224). You can get the TR224 as a whole package from thunder racing for a good price, and it will outperform the hotcam just about everywhere on the rpm range.
i want the hotcam because i found a good deal and it comes with springs and pushrods, i dont want anything too radical.... ive told this to thousands of people im tryin to say below 220 duration for stock converter drivability! and cam swaps are fun IMO
