New cam for project car? Sponsors recommendations welcome!
I'm running 5.7 ls1 241 heads with the patriot dual gold springs, 2.02 and 1.57 valves, valve drop is .105 and .135, and they are milled .030. I have 42lb. injectors and a tci 3500. I currently have a comp 222/222 so I want to go bigger but remain streetable. Looking for usable power not just peak #'s! I will not be flycutting! Any recommendations? Thanks, Chris.

I don't think you are going to be able to run a cam much bigger than what you have already without flycutting or running really tight ptvc with a .030 mill job and a 2.02 valve...I would check and see what clearance you have now then make a decision from there...
for reference my 230/230 111+4 cam with stock unmilled 241 and stock 2.00 intake, mls gaskets had .086 clearance...

Here are the cams I have been recommended.
Speed Inc. 228 (SI4)
TSP 228R
Vengeance VRX3
Livernois Stage 1 or 2
CMS 227/231 112+4
FMS F13 114+4
EPS 226/234 113
Comp Cam 228/230 112
EPS and Futral have been the most helpful spending alot of time on the phone with me doing calculations to make sure the cams would fit and work with my setup. Any thoughts on which one to choose or suggestions from those who have dealt with these sponsors? Thanks.
