Default How would this cam idle?

custom grind 212/230 .550/.560 115LSA

Would that cam be stealthy? Would going to a 116LSA help?

I want a total sleeper top end cam.

I wouldn't call it a total sleeper cam because it's not much bigger than stock (on the intake side anyway) and you probably won'w pick up a lot of power. I have a MTI Stealth II (224 int 220 ex on 116 LSA w/.581 lift), With my headers and Cat back you can tell something's probably not stock. The exhaust tone is different from stock but there is almost no lope at idle, the low end tourque is great.

It also pulls like a beast from 3-6k.
