best cam for p/p stock heads The car is a 2001 Z06. I will be doing a pretty basic port and polish job on the ls6 heads. I will be running lg motorsports long tubes, vararam induction, ported/polished tb, and an asp pulley. The car will also be tuned by a reputable tuner.(mc racing in kansas city) I will be using the car mainly for drag racing, some scca type racing and a good bit of plain old hot rodding around town . Any info is appreciated.
the cam I am looking at is this---> 236/231 601/581 112
I had a reverse split in my 02 z28 and it put down 404/387 to the wheels with all the bolt ons, p/p'd stock heads and tuning.(230/228 588/567 112lsa)

Some have had great luck with reverse splits but with ported heads and a good dual exhaust its not going to be optimal IMO. I would look at the same type cam as redtail or F13 as he suggested or maybe the Comp 228/230

I'm going to go off of what Bo said, sort of and recommend the G5X1. It's a 228/232. It has enough split to work well with your car, will make good power without being too extreme, and have enough top end for drag.
