Cam for 383?

I"m in the middle of building a 383 stroker for my 94 camaro.

I have advanced induction 190cc heads an cam kit.
hooker headers with drue duals
an basically all the bolt ons.

Now for internal I have,

Callies Dragonslayer 3.750" Stroke Crankshaft, Compstar 6.000" Connecting Rods, Diamond Forged Pistons, Total Seal AP Series Rings, Clevite Main Bearings, Clevite Rod Bearings, all ARP bolts an studs

The cam i have is kinda small i think? So what cams are you guys running in ur 383s? I dont have to worry about emmisions an the car is gonna be just a weekend street an strip car.

I also plan to use plenty of nitrous at the track like a 250 shot. how much nos could that rotating assembly handle with the diomond pistons?

Sorry for such a long post.
Thanks guys

did you tell phill and ron what you want out of the car in the first place? if so i would stick with the cam they gave you, if not call them back and see what they will do for you. they know what the heads will work best with not counting what springs you have on it. i got to say they made me happy with the cam the gave me . as far as pistons you going to get a ton of answers on that issue, cause of the nitrous. i am goingto be spraying a 300 shot and am currently looking at the cp or custom je. good luck with the path you choose to follow.
