Cam questions, what size??

Hey Guy's, Thinking of installing a bigger cam in my 97 LT1, would like to keep the stock heads, maybe upgrade the RR's later and do some pcmforless programing?? I want it to be drivably and have a good sounding lope, the programing will take care of the rest. The SS is not my dalily driver, so it can sit while thing get done. Have heard the LT4 hot cam is good with stock heads, but any ideas on better, meaner ones

Any thoughts, or ideas are welcome.
Thanks Badrag

To be honeset the CC306 is probably to big for a daily driver w/stock heads, the 306 is huge w/1.6rr's as well......

The cc305 is a great cam, the lt4 hotcam has a little less to offer, but is really the best all around cam if you compare 3 things, price vs. ease of parts that come in kit all together vs. gains

I dont think the LT4 Hot Cam is the cheapest....you can get any cam kit you want from Cmotorsports.com for under $600....about the same as the LT4 cam...why not get a better one.
