Cam Recommendations

I know there have been gobs of cam threads but most seem to be for 4WD trucks. I have a 75 F250, 2WD, 390 w/C6. Stock manifolds, holley 670, procomp msd knockoff iginition with mechanical advance distributor. Call me vain, but i love the sound of a little lope in the idle and wouldnt mind a little more bottom end and midrange power. Is there a cam that will give me audible enjoyment and a little power without having to change too many things? I know i'll need new springs and lifters, but things like heads and headers are out of the question. thanks for any tips
