stock rear end

RE: stock rear end
If it's the original stock rearend, the gear ratio is 2.79 . I have a 66 coupe with a C4and that's what originally came in mine. But you mention a cam? It really depends what direction your going with the car. Is it going to be a stocker, a Restomod, or a drag car? That is what you need to ask yourself.
I went the Restomod route so the 2.79's came out and I replaced them with 3.55's.I don't do a lot of highway driving with the car, but I do a lot of cruiseing,cruisenights & car shows occassionally. If you are going to do the same, I would go with anything between a 3.25 - 3.73(no more).
