Which cam for a TPI 383?

Which hyd roller cam for my 383? (L98 eng)
It will have a ported LTR TPI, Sportsman II heads or something similiar, free flowing exh.
I'm wanting lots of low-mid range torque. (400+ lbs)
Don't plan on exceeding 5000-5500 rpms with it.
Stock to slightly noticeable idle.

Unfortunately I will probably have to pass smog checks within a couple of years :-(

So far I've found:
a stock cam from a 383 crate eng.
a stock cam from a LS-1.
a stock cam from a ZZ4 crate eng.

Any of these be any good?

Also looking at CompCams XR276HR.

Thx.
