Default what' s the right cam for my truck?

I'm a new guy here and need some help. I have a '00 Silverado with a 5.3L and I want to put cam in it but don't know if i should go or the stock ls6 z06 cam or a C1 from MTI, or is there another cam out there that would work better. Other mods are 4.11 gears, stock posi, shift kit for 2000 stall converter, corvette servo, 2000 stall converter, eliminated the cats, flex-alite fans, k&n 77 series, throttle body spacer. the tune is coming after the cam. It is a daily driver

There's no 1 answer since there are so many different cams and different targeted power bands. Your best bet is to search through the forum here and see what fits your performance goal or talk with the sponsors about the direction and driveability you want to go. They're great at spending time making sure you're happy with the setup you choose or are recommended. BTW, welcome to the site!
