Default Putting a big cam in.. Where to start off stock tune?

I am putting LS1edit on order in the next couple weeks. Once it is here, I will be putting a TR236 in my car. I'm wondering where to start with tuning.

I know I will have misfires
I will need to bump the rev limiter
Change timing and A/F (2001 car, only sees about 25* timing right now)
Fan settings
Idle rpm

What else should be worked on?

There is alot more to change with this cam.I've been working with it for awhile.Hot/Cold start was absolutly horrible without tuning.
When your set send me an E-mail and I can help you with a good base setting.(too much to explain on the board)

Me too, also. I am always interested in BIG cam tuning ideas. Can you e-mail me the suggestions?
