Default i need some help please...

First off...what is going on everybody?? i am new to ls1's and new to this site as well. i have a question about wht i should do to my car. it is a 2000 Z-28 M6. all i have is a drop in k&n and exhaust( cats and a flow). i am for sure wanting to do a cam extremly quick. i am a huge fan of choppy idle stuff===i have been looking at cams and dont know what to get. had my eye on 4 and was curious on the 4 i am choosing from or maybe you guys can help me pick a different one. It must be choppy idle, descently streetable, and work descent with fairly stock heads for now. i am told my heads suck because they are the 853 series, but i fugure lifters, springs, and so on and they should be ok for awhile. here are the 4 cams...

1. LG G5x2 232/240 .595/.608
2. LG G5x3 2xx/ 2xx .605/.610
3. TSP Magic Stick 3 237/242 .603/.609
4. TSP Torquer 2 232/234 .595/.598

Like i have said, if y'all know of someting better or more for my application i am open to suggestions... THANKS in advance guys!

I'd upgrade to a LS6 intake and headers before doing a cam.

I'd consider going full bolt ons before going cam.. keep in mind you'll be changing your springs every year once you install a cam

Only advice I can offer you is this; think about what mod you want to do and how it may effect the rest of the car (drivetrain, suspension, etc...). Modding has a domino effect and if you don't do you're homework it can be a VERY expensive domino effect. Do what I did. Spend a lot of time reading stickies and doing searches. The search button is the best feature to use for sure.
