Default keeping the lt1

i had a change to buy a ls1 motor. instead i am going to keep my LT1. i guess i like being the under dog . so now that i have saved up a good amount of money i am think of mods. haha. i have headers, catback, ram airand intake, and alot of lil things. i WANT to keep my stock heads but get them ported. what would be the best cam to go with them? i dont want a stall tho. so i spend the money on a new intake or get the stock one ported??

thanks
guys

is there some reason you don't want a stall? that's one of the best auto mods you can do.

A shitty stall is pretty bad I have to agree. However, the right stall is pretty fun. I really like my Pro Edge 3400. It's pretty loose down low but pretty friendly out on the highway. If you want a good stall and like you said, you do not race, a 2800 or so would probably be good for you.

I'd probably look out for one already done and just buy it. You can save some money doing that and then you can sell your stocker.

What are you using all the hp for if you don't race? Not trying to insult, just wondering to help you decide..
