What H/C package to buy???
I am looking for a H/C package for my 2002 LS1 that is in my 69 Camaro..
I currently have a LS6 intake but may upgrade to a FAST 90/90..
Which head cam is a better set up and which will make more power??
Thanks

The specs say the torque range is between 1900 and 6500..
Is that wrong??
Thanks
Is the 10.75 compression ratio too high for pump gas??

Don't mind what they say the powerband is... that's something only you/a dyno can determine. Each car is different. You'll be fine on pump gas. Both heads are great and you can't go wrong with either, that's for sure.
As far as which will make more power, the 23x will likely pull harder up top. But the majority of the people out there i know are obsessed with under the curve power. My vote goes for the 224. I've seen some great numbers with that small of a cam. You'd be stunned to find out some smaller cam kill stories over large cams. "Go big or go home"... my *****.

The PRC 5.3/MS3 combo is a proven performer. I've got it and it needs 4.11s to really shine but all in all I am very happy with it

I am now thinking that I will go with the Patriot stage II heads with the TSP 233/239 cam with my LS6 intake with a FAST 90/90 intake down the road..
I will be running a 6spd with 4:11 so the higher RPM range would be OK..
How does thiat sound??
Thanks

It's up to you man. Like everyone is going to say, you'll make power... there's no doubt about that. Right now you're trying to decide WHEN you want to be thrown back in your seat...
