Default older z06 ls6 heads,cam and other stuff on my 01 ss

got a used set of zo6 heads and am gonna rebuild them, probaly not gonna port them. was wonderin would be a good cam for power across the rpm range with a wompity wompity idle. aslo gonna change lifters, pushrods, oil pump, headers, timing chain(double?) are ls7 lifters an option and are my rockers arms able to be rebuilt? im also considerin goin with 5.3 heads but hesistating because of all the cam selections. ive read with some of the spicier cams you have to flycut the pistons using the 5.3' s and am unsure abour doing that process.

I use the VRX3. I made 408 rwhp with stock heads and stock cubes. I make a little more now though. Check Sig.

Well, I wrote a big *** post. But I accidentally clicked off of this page and now its gone.

Bottom line is that the cam only had much more power with the VRX3.
