What Cam will work?

Here's the skinny!

I just bought a L98 350 TPI to replace my 305 TPI and I'd like to add a cam before I drop this baby in, but I don't have a clue what would be a good cam for me.

I'm not a racer and I don't want to do any major engine work at this point. I'm really just lookin' for something that's going give me a little more go and lot better sound thru my new 3" exhuast!

I've gotten a few ideas from other people including a zz-9 TPIS cam, but some say that's too much cam!

Any suggestions? What are you guys running?

comp cams

honestly your best bet would be to call the comp cams help line, all you have to do is tell them what you have and what you want, if you are not sure what you want they will ask you questions and help you determin what you are looking for.

the numebr is: 1-800-999-0853

Not too much cam, as in specs., but too much money for a cam! TPIS is one of the most expensive places to get a cam.
