new engine YAY! cam help anyone?

well i just purchased a new to me enginge from a friends dad its a 350 4 bolt main out of a 75 chevy originaly but it was made into a crate engine by some company sometime in its life
its a great running engine but it is good need of a rebuild
i got the whole thing for 100 bucks which i thought was a pretty good deal
im hoping to get into a parts store saturday before i work and get a gasket set and a set of freeze plugs and i know the heads need new valve guides so im gonna have napa or someone redo my heads for me and im puttin new rings in tomorow
and this is where i run into a question about the cam i want to buy a cam/ lifter combo for the engine its just gonna be a work horse engine it will probly spend most of its life being a daily driver and pulling new cars and trucks home behind my 68 c/20 anyone got any ideas on a good affordable cam lifter kit that would get that job done well?

It'll be quite a bit healthier than stock, still work well with stock heads, idle decent with a little growl, provide enough vaccum, and get decent MPG.

All strictly my opinion. Im sure you'll get many.
