I would try something around a 220/220 on a 112 lsa (click):
The Texas Speed 220/220 .581/.581 Camshaft With Your Choice of Lobe Seperation.
This camshaft features Comp Cams XER lobes! The XER lobes have been proven to make big horsepower & torque thanks to their aggressive ramp rates & healthy lift.
1200-6200 RPM Power Band; This is an excellent performance camshaft with a smooth idle! Custom tuning for automatic cars required
This camshaft typically gains approximately 30-35rwhp!
i heard that that much lobe soperation was hard to get it to idle right
Nope...maybe 110 would be a challenge, but even a 110 can be tweaked by a good tuner. If you're wanting lope, I would get the 112.
112 LSA is not hard to tune. All you need to do is raise or lower your engine idle RPM to even out the idle...

get rid of the shorties get long tubes, doesnt matter what cam you get with shorties youre still leaving alot on the table, stick a tr224 in there and be happy... then again if your not planing on doing any head work, then go with a 218/220 or something in that range..
