Default Ordering a cam soon

Yup, just like the title says. Im ordering my Torquer V3 cam kit from TSP in 2 weeks! My current mods are in sig. I plan on picking up an LS6 intake somewhere...Ive searched craigslist and found a couple, and there seems to be one popping up just about everday on here, so hopefully ill luck out and grab one. I go on a 7 day cruise next friday, and the day i return ill order the kit, along with sending out my TB to be ported/polished/powder coated by the site sponsor running that deal.

Everything ill have..

-Torquer V3, Dual springs, Tit. Retainers, 7.4 Pushrods
-LS6 Intake
-Ported/Polished Throttle Body
-LS6 Ported Oil Pump
-LS2 Timing Chain
-GM Basic Cam bolt and Gasket Set
-6 QTs of Oil and Filter
-1 Gallon of Dex Cool

Current Mods

-Pacesetter LT's Race Style
-Custom True Duals w/ Dynomax bullets Dumped
-!EGR, !CATS, !AIR
-SLP Lid
-MSD Wires
-NGK TR5ix Plugs
-4.10's

Questions..

What kind of number should i be looking at on a dyno?

Will there be a huge SOTP difference? (never been in a cammed car before, so i dont know what to expect.... lol)

Am I missing any supporting mods or anything in general?

Is this a pretty decent street only setup?

Thanks guys

Is go with ARP headbolts... they cost more, but can be used over and over again if you need to POP a head off

Thanks for the input, but I'll buy head bolts when I do a set of heads in a few months...

I don't see anything about him changing the heads, why change just the head bolts?

Doesn't the TSP sale end tomorrow? Might wanna check and order before you leave.
