Default Cam Selection

Got a 99 6 speed. Following mods installed on the car.

Corsa exhasut
FLP headers

Ready to go on the car
LS1 Stage 2 heads flowing 310
78mm Fast intake

Need help in a cam selection. Car needs to remain streetable, and also have a 114 LSA to stay emission friendly in Washington.

Any suggestions from the crowd?

No valve clearance issues... I have not tuned or dynoed yet but I hope to go north of 400rwhp with ls6 intake and underdrive pulley...

Pretty popular cam so maybe others can give you some dyno numbers...
