[Wanted] daily driver friendly Cam Package

i am just about to put some headers on and after that will be a cam and tune. can anyone recommend a cam that is more aggressive than the stock cam, but still daily driver friendly?

anyone guess what kind of HP i might be at with the following?

Honker Intake
LG Longtubes
Bullet exhaust
moderate cam
semi-aggressive tune

Thanks!

I have the Honker Intake, the LG Longtube Headers and the Borla Stinger exhaust on a 2005 C6 Z51 6 speed. I just had it tuned at Carolina Auto Masters in Durham, NC using HP Tuners software (the tune was moderate, not agressive). It was a very cool night and my unadjusted HP was 401. SAE adjusted I made 387 RWHP and 383 Ft Lbs Torque. I suspect with a driveable cam 420-430rwhp are easy targets. With a moderately aggressive cam and heads I would expect 480 + rwhp.
