Look at Crane's line of cams. They have a large amount of cams for computer controlled engines. Roller and Hydraulic. www.cranecams.com. I'm running a crane compucam 2020 with my Holley 670 TBI with no problems.

TBI cars have hydraulic roller camshafts. They all got 'em after '87.

i am planning to use a stock '97 LT1 cam in the next couple of months. there are 2 LT1 cams, the early version (275hp) was used from 93-95, the later version (285hp) started in 96. the later version has a revised exhaust lobe the allows for better scavanging.
i think the LT4 cam may be a bit on the big side for a dual plane tbi. if you are looking to a single plane manifold and have aftermarket heads it should produce some fantastic power numbers.
