Default Poll Time!!!

Im looking for cam suggestions. Which one of these cams will provide me with the best "under the curve" HP and torque. Im not looking for the one thats gonna give me 400 rwhp, though I wouldnt be upset if thats what it made. It will be going in my 98 vette, and will have the supporting mods (Yank 3200, Lt headers). Im also looking for one with a fairly "noticeable" idle. Thanks in advance.

I have the TR 224 112 lsa cam in my Z. With LTs and such, I made 374 rwhp and 381 # of trq. That was through a flowmaster exhaust with the cutout closed. With my crap exhaust, it sounds very nice with the cutout closed, but with it open it sounds orgasmic.
