Going to upgrade my cam shaft

It's my daily driver. Only mods done to my SS auto camaro are TSP 1 7/8 headers, no cats, no resonator, no mufflers, also I have a CAI intake. What can should I go with and what all would I need to buy with it?

I would suggest contacting GPI (Ryno79 on the board here) and discus some options for your L99.

No cats, resonator or mufflers.. must be loud.

Also i'm interested in hearing which you end up picking and how it is.

Mine is too loud after sc and VVT SS1 cam upgrade (headers, no cats, muffler delete). I stuck with VVT and did DOD delete...

Ryan (Rhino79) helped me with my cam. Andy @ADM suggested a blower friendly cam spec. I want another Cam Motions so Ryan will help me there too since BTR uses Comp Cams and I don't really want to deal with the apparent issues from their stocks...

Going to change to a blower friendly VVT cam...

Upgrade the torque converter... It's a needed part to go with your cam.
