My personal experience is that factory replacement cams from gm are the best all around street cams.
That would be the famous GM #3896929 or "390" cam which I agree is a great mild street cam, especially for small displacement engines. CompCams sells this grind as grind # 12-105-3 and GMPP as 12364051.

The mild GM cams are good picks for mild street engines, but any mods (intake, heads, exhaust, etc.) and the aftermarket cams start showing real benefits IMHO.
