Where to buy LPE cam?
Any vendors carry the LPE line of cams or is the only place to purchase them is from LPE direct?
Pretty certain I'm going with the small 211/219 like I have in the truck for now.

I have not read any personal experiences with the 219/219 or seen any dyno charts for it, if it brings up the tq just like the 211/219 at the low rpm I'm game and as long is its idle qualities are near stock.
I have the 211/219 in my LT4 powered Silverado and it drives great with the stock stall and tows my GN on the trailer very nicely even with the convertor locked and at 2k rpms.
FYI, the '95 in sig is wife's car, and the cam it now she won't drive it. I was ordered to return it back to the way it drove before with the stock cam or I was going to have to buy her a new car..and I sure don't want to do that but I want it to have some kick to it as well
..she likes power but not the rumble..or she'll start racking up the miles on one of the anniversary cars 
She doesn't mind the LPE sound/cam in the truck so it was my logical choice. I have a Le1.5 cam already too on the bench, but afraid that will still be too radical for her.

How would the 219/219 cam perform say with a stock stall convertor?

I'd stick with the LPE grinds personally.

I'll stick with the LPE 211/219 as planned, and from the comment from SS above, and if that works for her, I may put the LE1.5 in the truck
