Default need advice on torquer 2 cam

well unless i hear something different from someone here with personal experience on a different cam, it looks like I'm going to order this one. to give you some information on what i'm looking for in a cam, i want good power in a usable range with a good 30hp boost in hp and good down low torque so its still fun to row through the gears but not too much lope at idle to where it shakes the car but i don't necessarily need a chetr cam like idle. just some thing middle of the road , not too radical not too mild. i just don't want to get it and then find out about the cam i should've bought. this is the only place to talk to and get input from so many corvette owners at once and its why i visit the forum almost everyday so thanks in advance for any info you can give me

Great cam, it will give you well more than 30 HP. 40-45 can easily be found with that cam. Also, that cam has excellent street manners compared to the many others I have tried. It gives big cam power with smaller cam driveability. You will love it.
That cam, kooks headers, and vararam intake produced 426RWHP on my car. Without the cam it made 376RWHP. I had the 113 LSA.

Order the whole kit, with the push rods and valve springs. Also order a cam swap gasket kit. Good time for a thermostat too. Your loooking at $800 to your door. Everything you will need. Texas Speed.
