Default Camshaft

Been thinking about ordering a camshaft for my 95 Lt1..I want something thats going be choppy at idle. Anyone know how to go about choosing one, I honeslty dont know squat about them. Do I absoutly have to change the lifters etc...?? Will i need to do anything with the computer??

yes yes and yes

there's a sticky at the top of this section that tells what you will need for a cam swap. it includes rockers, springs, lifters, injectors, pushrods and cam. a tune is absolutely necessary if you want it to run at all decently.

i know several good cam choices but we need to know your goals for the car before we can make any sort of suggestion. sound doesn't equal power

Not planning on making a race car... Just wanna hop it up a bit and keep on the street. Not planning on changing the heads but that could change. I read the cam guide didnt see anthing on there about injectors i guess injector size would depend on shaft selection?? Bigger injectors would require a bigger pump too right?
