Would make sure to check PTV clearance to make sure the valve reliefs in the pistons match up ok with that cam. Shouldn't be an issue but worth checking. LS3 heads respond better to high lift over duration.

Car: 2003 C5Z06

Tuner: Don Kinder has been tuning my builds since 2006

Why? Dart Pro's, I know nothing about them, but have been told(key word here) that they are just above 243's

Plan: remove the Dart's and install the LS3 heads(take-off), the LS3 intake/90mmTB cost is not an issue(the LS6 intake would cover it if sold)

1. LS3 heads($600)
2. LS3 intake/90 ($300-400)
3. Cam ($350)

Thanks for the info
I am a fan of the LS3 heads on stroker engines. Although, these heads are Dart LS3 Heads:

The engine in the link above has ARH headers you all made for me last year. As for your cam, I think you will find it will work great assuming this is 11.5:1 or less on pump gas and you degree it in on a 109 or 110 degree intake centerline.
