Default Cam Selection

Sup Fellas!
Been awhile since I owned a lsx. Now i have a 2008 vette and its time to mod it. First thing i want to do is add a cam.

What cam will give me the most bang for the buck (power).
Its a automatic car and i dont want to go higher than a 3500 stall in the future. I may add nitrous and I dont mind upgrading the springs.

Thanks in advance!

There will be lots of options and opinions on this. I just went through it for my '08 auto, and I'm happy with the cam Pat G spec'd but my goals are probably diffetent than yours. 222/230 .597/.609 115+2. Best bet is to check with some of the vendors, Pat, or Spinmonster to see what they recommend

Pat G and Spinmonster are invaluable resources on this forum. You should run a search as this has been covered many times over. Read up on other guys results, dyno sheets and drive ability impressions. You will most likely read for several hours and that will help narrow your selection down.
