What cam should I run?

81 Bronco, 351M stock engine C-6. runs great and great power, I will be lifting the truck and building it for desert running and daily driving. Was interested in what you guys think would be a GOOD cam, decent idle, 1500rpm and up or mabye. More power the better.

Any ideas or other people who have cams they like feel free to post your recommend

If you're not doing anything to the heads, exhaust or torque converter, you're going to be limited in your applications. Best thing you can do is call one of the big cam manufacturers and have them input your data into their software program. They include all the engine factors, torque converter, trans, rearend ratio, tire size and weight.
