Not on stock heads you don't.


With Stage 2 LS6 heads, an F14 from Futral is up to the task. So is the MS3 from Texas Speed.
Call Futral or TSP or Thunder and ask them what cam they recommend for your heads.
Specify any milling, cc, and valve size that's been worked on your heads.

Good luck!

These are proven recipes, the both made 450 hp easily with heads milled to 11:1CR, The fly cutting is not that big issue and cheep way to run big cam and high CR ratio.

Flycutting is avoidable and it is a pain in the ***. IMO.

Seriously, this is going to be a big cam naming thread and you're not going to come away with anything learned.

If you want to learn something, read JRP's sticky at the top of this forum, and call a few shops.

Heck, with a FAST 90/90 and a good exhaust, 450rwhp is attainable with medium sized cams.
