Default 222/222 cam - suggestions please

will a 222/222 .566/.566 112 LSA cam work well in a modified 5.3? It will have new valve springs, headers, no emmissions, high flow MAF, and a retune. The engine will go in a small 3300# truck with a TH350 transmission (shift kit). How will this cam act (i want it to be streetable)? what kind of hp/tq can this make? lopey idle? Thanks everyone!

That would be a great cam for that engine, and have a little lope to it. With good intake and exhaust, you'll probably see mid 300 rwhp.

can ls6 valve springs just be swapped in place of te stock springs to make this cam work? will the stock push rods and lifters be fine (59k miles)? thanks

yeah, you can use them as a direct replacement.
