Well, we need to know a little more than that. What's the weight of the vehicle? Approximations are ok. 305, 350? What kind of exhaust setup? Heads? Rear gears?
Last but not least, what are you looking, in expectations from this car? If you're looking for more Low end power, I'd say stick with the LT4 cam, the other will make you more peppy in the higher end, but if you have a numerically low gear ratio, it may be a bit of a dog.
