Bigger cam and carb, or smaller cam and Stealth Ram?
I have had a Vortec 350 sitting in the wings for 2 or 3 years now, I'm finally getting around to rebuilding it. It's getting 2.02 1.60's cut into the vortec heads, and the rest of the engine is getting a basic overhaul. I have an LPE cam, but it's small, I believe it's the 211 camshaft. I'm considering selling it and purchasing a camshaft from this guy:

The guy has 3 different cuts, I would consider the hot cam to be a decent cut for my stealth ram setup. I'm considering going to the larger 230 duration camshaft if I do a carb. The carb setup would consist of a street demon carb and performer or performer RPM type manifold.
I'm thinking it would save me a lot of hassle going to the carb setup over tuning the stealth ram setup, but I'm wondering which would make better power.
The car has a turbo 350, 3k converter, 3.73's and pretty short tires now (probably 27in tall). It's also really light like 3200 pounds or so. I drive the car to the track and race it, then come home, that's about it. I'm kind of at a cross roads right now so any input would be appreciated.
