Pick a cam for me... OK, here's the challenge. I want an all around good cam... not JUST high end, not JUST low end.. but a good gain all through the RPM range. I want good streetability too... nothing TOO lopey. A cam is the furthest I'm going with mods... may spray a 100 shot down the road, but not counting on it. i want to set up for good NA times more than anything. I'm leaving stock heads and I've already got all the normal bolt ons save a pulley, plan on doing that with a cam. I also want to reach the 400rwhp mark.
What cam(s) should I consider??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Their cams are probley the best cams on the market right now.
From what you said you wanted from a cam, it sounds like the TR 224/224 .561/.561 114 LSA cam would be right up your alley. This cam makes unbelievable power from 1600 RPM all the way past 6600 RPM. People who have this cam, along with proper tuning, and all the bolt ons, are dynoing right around 400 rwhp.
