Picking a cam

I have a slightly modded 95z28 camaro. Headers, exhaust, tb, cai, 1.6 rockers, granateli maf sensor, underdrive pulley, really nothin big. The heads and intake are stock not lookn to make a race car out of it, just lookn for a nice cam, lifter, and valve spring kit for around 800 bucks. I don't want to buy a cam that requires the computer to be tuned. Any suggestions would be great.

A Hot Cam can be run without a tune , but it would work better with at least a mail order tune. For that matter a stock motor with headers and a cold air intake works better with a tune.

i was thinking about sending my computer away to pcmforless and getting a tune later on. Is there any other place i might consider getting a tune from.

I use Ion at Madz28, and have been VERY happy with every tune he sent me. I started with a premium tune for a bolt on car and then bough a cable and had him email me a tune 4 other times as i changed the car. I had it Dyno tune last year and he only found 10 more HP over Ion's email tune. Look in my Sig for what I've done to the car. Here's his website: http://www.madz28.com/
