Default 5.3 cam swap for a ls powered mustang

hey guys i got a 89 foxbody mustang i am about to start on got a 05 5.3 that i dropping in it. i am trying to figure out a good cam for it. this car is going to be a street strip car that is only drove everynow and then to town and to work every so often but i do want it to be pretty streetable and still make good power. the drivetrain is a 700r4 with a 2300 stall and 4.10 gears. the motor is going to be carbed using the edelbrock dual plane intake and ignition kit with, headman long tubes i think they are 1 7/8 primary tubes. i am wanting something that is going to make some good midrange power and not loose to much low end, i just want a great all around street cam. with a car that light i am sure it can handle a lose on the low end being a stock 5.0 is way lower power and still moves them fairly decent. any help would be appreciated. thanks
