Default camshaft question

What would be the best camshaft to get for a stock 95 Gt?

theres always tomorrow though bro. you ll get it one day if you want it. it took me 3 years and 7500 and i still want to do about 3k more worth of mods to it. trying to finish it this summer and get it repainted. that trickflow stage 1 cam is a good cam and had a killer idle to it. i have the E now. it sounds good too but im thinking about going with something bigger for mine, well actually, i know im going with so ething bigger. check out that trickflow cam too. theres a guy on here who has one and has a sound clip of it and it rocks man.

black95...what are your plans and what is your budget? You'd be better off doing heads, even if they're gt40's or P heads and an intake. You can run 1.7's on the stock cam to get more out of it..... I'm suggesting that b/c on a stock motor a cam won't do much for you.
