Help me pick a cam!

Hi all-

I'm looking at replacing my 305 with a GM Goodwrench 350 ( http://www.sdpc2000.com/cart.asp?act...id=128&pid=105 ) My intention is to have a reliable, streetable (read: passes emissions on the dyno) , 275 to 300 hp car.

Obviously the engine needs a little help to make that, so I want to swap out the cam before dropping it in. My question is what cam? Through SDPC I was looking at these cams:

Comp Cams fuel injection cam (.450/.480", 206/210 duration)
GMPP LT4 Hot Cam ( I think we're all familiar with this one)
GMPP ZZ4 Cam (.474/.510, 208/221 duration)

I'm keeping the TPI, but with Accel base and runners and a ported plenum. The exhaust is SLP 1 5/8" headers with dual cats and a flowmaster 3" cat back. For fuel I have an AFPR and am looking at 21 to 24 lb/hr injectors. As far as the computer goes, I'm looking at the DIY prom option or talking to Ed Wright at Fastchip.

Thanks guys-

OK.....so I'm learning this engine sucks more than I thought it did. Anyone know where I can get a good one-piece rear main seal, hydraulic roller cam 350 longblock for about $1500 that's a decent start to the 300hp mark?
