Default Newb on heads cam

I was looking at the heads cam package which consisted of TorquerV3 cam and PRC stage 2.5 ls6 heads can anyone tell me how good this setup is on the street? My car is not a dd and its a m6.

Depending on what supporting mods you have, you should have no problems with a decent tune getting 420-440rwhp.. What are your plans/expectations for the car? You will lose some drivability with that setup..

2300-6700 RPM Power Band with a peak around 6400rpm; This is an excellent performance camshaft with a rough idle!

Even with an awesome tuner, you will lose drivability at low RPMs. EX: Cruise control at 75MPH in 6th gear..

With your car not being a DD, I wouldn't worry too much about it..

You and that cam will not be happy campers unless you run 4.10 gears with it...
