Default Best cams for smooth idle

I want to do a PI cam swap into my 96, but i cant find any. So does anyone know what the next best option would be? I don't want the lopey idle since its my DD.

Comp 262's are a great little cam above the pi cams. No piston to valve issues and the idle wont be much different from stock. Your best bang for your buck will be a full pi swap though.

Did the PI cams with bolt on as listed in my sig years ago. Helped but not a real SOTP difference. Last year I did the PI intake and WOW did that wake it up. I assume between the base gains from the intake itself, the NPI was also bottlenecking my cams and bolt ons. Not saying its a Termi but definitely a huge difference from stock.
