Anybody out there running a 02-03 ZO6 cam? I have a 2000 Z with all bolt-ons on my car and was wondering if this is a good street cam. Thanks!!

its a great plug and play cam, wont see much gains untill 4500+ then you'll need to raise the rev limiter to take advantage of the ls6 cams higher peak.

It's an ok cam if you want a little extra power but why leave power on the table? I've seen alot of guys put down 350-360rwhp with this cam..one even had heads. Gains are decent but a custom grind cam can get you quit a few more ponys. Think of it this way. Why do alot of Z06 guys trade out their cams for custom grinds?

I second this post.
Near 400 with the ls6 cam is freakish.

What do you think will be the best cam for stock heads. I read that a lot of guys like the TR224, the TSP 231/237 or some of the MTI cams. I know that picking a cam is a give and take situation. Any suggestions on how you decided to go with what you did????

I started with an MTI C1.
It was a good cam. Decent, about 380rwhp, choppy.
BUT, I wanted a mean sounding, lopey cam that turned heads and made great power while still being streetable. I also wanted this to be my last cam upgrade, and searched for a something that would work well with Stage II heads and possible stroker upgrade in the future. Therefore, the TSP231/237.

As for the springs argument... well, we've gotta change them, 222 or 237, .566 or .598, they've gotta come out sooner or later. Might as well maked the most of it. A little sooner than later is no problem in my book.

I heard that anything over 230 degrees of duration is to much for stock heads. The PTV clearance is minimal. How does the car drive? Do you have a good tune?

Car drives very well (it's my daily driver). Tune needed. Only hiccup is that the car needs to warm up just a bit to get going smoothly. P/V clearance fine on stock heads.
