85 Z28 w a 350 swap, cam help

DELETE


Ok, so I just bought an 85 Z28, with a 350 swapped in and I need more power. So sfc are going in first, but now I'm going to cam it. Kinda looking for advice on a good cam. With all mods I want to do I'm looking at roughly 350rwhp. Ive been looking cant really find too much(might be part due to my impatience sometimes). But can someone help me out on choosing a cam, currently looking at http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CCA-12-211-2/ Cam Style
Hydraulic flat tappet
Basic Operating RPM Range1,800-5,800
Intake Duration at 050 inch Lift 224
Exhaust Duration at 050 inch Lift 224
Duration at 050 inch Lift 224 int./224 exh.
Advertised Intake Duration 270
Advertised Exhaust Duration 270
Advertised Duration 270 int./270 exh.
Intake Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio
0.470 in.Exhaust Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio
0.470 in.Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio
0.470 int./0.470 exh.
In end I really want something with a noticeable to mild idle. That will give me some good power. Any help is much appreciated. Also did these come with stock stall converters? any suggestions on what to do for that as well. (my budget is around 700 bucks for cam lifters springs and maybe rockers. as well as a stall)
