Default Good cams for z6?

I have a mini swap in my car D15b7 with a Z6 head trying to figure what would be a good cam for it. Not looking for something crazy just looking for an upgrade from my stock one. Any recommendations would be great!

Is this the only mod you're planning on doing?
If so, Stock cam.

I'm glad this thread came up. I was looking at a BLOX stage 1 cam. My 94 EX turned it's timing belt into confetti so I have the head off anyway. For the price I'm having a hard time saying no!

Supposed to run fine on a stock ECU and valves.

You will need to tune the engine after any cam that is not stock.

Also your engine only has one cam, you keep saying cams but there is only one.

Wait till you get your turbo set up piece together or don't do it at all. waste of money for 5whp probably not even.

if you are planning on going turbo in the future just ditch the cams until you have the engine apart for the turbo. Then get yourself some really good cams with good lift for those high revs.

OP; in short, all at once, or don't do it, you'll be doing more damage than good.
