CheaTR cam was designed to use stock exhaust, would get you close if not there. Very aggressive ramps and lift though.

FurtralMotorsports F-13 cam puts down some real nice numbers and is pretty quiet.

I would also check out MTI's Stealth II Cam, designed for that very purpose.

also, how many RPMs can a stock LS1 turn safely? im sure that will be a factor in my cam selection as well, or will the new valve springs etc move that number up?(the RPM safe range)

Depends on the year, earlier years I believe have more concerns with regard to rod bolts than later years since the bottom end is the same as the LS6.
