Default Decent cam, no lope?

Any of you guys know of a decent cam that doesn't have a noticable lope to it, or is it just not possible? If not, what about one with a very very slight lope? I'm a newbie when it comes to cams so don't flame me too much.

For a stealth type application, I would chose the LPE GT2-3

Thanks for the quick response and info, it looks like what I want. Will there be any tuning needed for this?

Lunati also has some LS1 Street/Strip cams that will not require tuning or a torque converter and should idle well with mild or no lope.

I picked up 2/10's with the 2k vette cam and 3 mph as well as pulled a 2.15 60' with stock converter with this cam as well and you can get the cam between 50 and 100 bucks, no springs or rods needed with it either specs are 198 207 500 500 115.5 nice little cam for the price.

You could buy my LS1 cam for $20! That sucker definitley will not have lope and won't have to change the springs.

If you happen to buy one I would say a 212/218-115LSA. I've heard one on a 114LSA in a 4.8 and it didn't have that much of lope.
