Default Cam for 207?

I can only find cams for the 3.8l v6, I cant find anything but the stock replacement for the 3.4l. Ive tried compcams and cranecams and they dont have anything for the 3.4. The best I can find is Id need one custom made but I was hoping there was some performance cams out there for this that I am just over looking.

I don't know where you were you were looking, but here is a starter.

3.4L/207 - V6 - CHEVROLET - Camshaft and Lifter Kits - Camshafts & Valvetrain - SummitRacing.com

Are you sure you weren't looking for cams for the 3.4 four cam engine?

i swear we have the same basic car, same symptoms with the car and then on top of that we seem to have the same thought process. im always wanting to put a cam in mine

how big you planing on going in yours? i dont want to go huge but i definitly want a little performance and have a nice healthy clunky idle to it

Haha, thats great. Well stock it has a 192 in it. I want at least a 204 but no higher than a 246. Basically a mild cam but very noticeable cam. I want something that helps with power, but if it is too big, ill need power to push the cam. haha.

Thank you for the site. And a four cam engine? I have heard of quad engines, but I wasnt sure if they were referring to that or not. All I know is I went under 94 chevy camaro, and they only had the 3.8 engine and 5.7. I never saw a 3.4/207.

i know nothing about cams for the most part. how do u know thats the one you want? im like u tho, i want it to be noticeable but not too freakin huge, i just love that sound and the added performance they give you.

anything you can tell me so i can try to figure out which one i want to get?

If you go to the forums home page and go down to engines, the forum that says you cank about your internals, there is a sticky with a link that describes everything about a cam. I also looked up different sized cams and read the descriptions of each. Lastly, Ive had a few friends that did cam swaps that brought me up to speed and I had to replace the cam in my old ford probe gts.
