Default Help me choose a cam!!!!!

hey fellas,
I have a 2000 camaro ss with the following mods. Pacesetter Lt's, ORY, SLP loudmouth, LS6 intake, ported and polished TB and MAF, upgraded wires/plugs/suspension etc. I am wanting to throw a stick in there now and i need help with choosing the right one.

I am gonna let the guys at vengance take care or install and i am buying through them with springs and all but jsut want a few opinions on what cam.

My car is a daily driver and i do not have to worry about emmisions. I want a very aggresive idle sound and i want ot of course make as much power as possible. However it is a daily driver and i do not want to make it so aggresive that it affects drivability or gas too much (basicly i dont want to starve my stock heads).

I am making 359/367 to the wheels as of right now and i really want 400rwhp so given that, what do y'all have to suggest???????????

Also i may switch to a fast 90 instead of a ls6, will this help enough to worry about the $$$?

If you have the $$$ for a FAST, why not spend it on a set of ported heads instead? You can get a set of ported heads with dual springs good for any cam up to .650 lift for less than a Fast 90 and T/B, not to mention if you consider what the springs will cost with the cam kit, your only looking at like $800.00-$900.00 more for heads.

Since your getting the work done at Vengeance , get one of their custom cams . Get one of their ported FAST intakes .
