Question What cam for ETP 215's ???

I was looking into purchasing ETP 215's over the winter months, and I am looking for an efficient street drivable cam. I have seen many head/cam combos that perform well with these heads, but I am not sure what would be best for my application.

My goal:

11's in the 1/4 Mile N/A
400+ RWHP
Street drivable
Semi-Choppy Idle

Current mods:

SLP LS6 intake
P&P Throttle Body
no AIR
no EGR
Kooks Lt's
Kooks Y-pipe
SLP LM1
MSD Wires
AC Delco Iridium Plugs
MTI Clear Lid
K&N Air Filter
Yank SS3600
Metco LCA's with relocation

Soon to purchase:
FLT Level 5 4L60E
ETP 215's
Underdrive Pulley
Different oil pump (Ported LS6 or Miziere)

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I currently have 3.23 gears...but I was thinking about changing them to 3.73. Would it help much with my stall?

Thanks in advance for your help!

-James

Hi firebirdman,

You will find in my (sorry long) thread below all the details about the buildup with my ETP 215...not exactly in your power range but daily driven, videos inside will explain clearly:
