i6 cam question

i have a 96 f150 with the inline 6 in it. i was thinking about getiing a cam for more torque. i have looked at cliffords website, but it doesnt show any charts, or if the cam pulls good vacum, or how it idles. is anyone running a aftermarket cam, if so who makes it, how much vacum does it pull, how does it idle, any tuning required. any help would be great. thanks in advance
