Default I'm New!

Doing my first solo build, and I'm looking to increase power obviously. I want a good combination. Aggressive cam but still good for daily driving. And heads to match? I have heads in good shape. Maybe just new valves and springs? Any help is appreciated

Default Haha sorry!

Yea Sorry about that. I have a 67 c10, fleeted, long box. 350 bored .030 over. I don't know specs on the cam or the heads. The block is a 4 bolt main, and it was bolted to a TH400, which I will be selling and going with a 4 or 5 speed manual. All the engine parts are in good condition, so I would like to reuse as much as I can (i.e. heads, maybe just take them to a machine shop) and just replace the necessary parts to go with a new cam. Just wondering what size, lift, duration, all that will be best for semi-daily driver application while maintaining as much power as possible (and of coarse the nice aggressive rumble) Thanks guys!
