Roller Cam for my l05 Engine

Hi,

I swapped a l05 K-Engine from a 1989 G20 Van into my 1990 Boxy Caprice Station Wagon. I tuned it a little bit with Hedmann Headers, MSD Blaster Coil and an Edelbrock Air Gap Intake Manifold.
So far everything is OK and I like this Engine. But its a Truck Engine and so really has not so much power. I know that these Engines are the 4 Bolt Engines and are already prepared for the LT1 Roller Cam. Now I am looking for a nice roller Cam Kit from Comp.
I just want some more Power to burn the wheels, so the idle should be still normal and the Heads are the Stock ones. Any recommandations? I read a lot of this Engine, but never found out, what is a just a nice roller cam setup for this engine.
Is there any "LT1 like" Roller Cam Set with Lifters from Comps?

Thanks in advance for your answers guys.

Greetings

I would get the L31 vortec cam or the 350 ramjet cam. That will wake the 305 up. Those cams are around $160 from Scoggin-Dickey

Could download camquest6 from comp cams website, pretty sure they have 4-6 good matching cams for your LO5, that are similar to the LT1 cam.
