^^^ If that z06 is your daily driver be very leery of adding a cam. Not to offend anyone here but the MPG will go down, the idle will be a bit rougher, and if the tune isn't spit on then you might have cam surge at awkward speeds/load points. Not to say that any of those things will bother you but really make sure it's what you want to do, it's a big commitment to do a cam in terms of labor/money/drivability.

I agree. And for only 30-40hp, i dunno if its worth it. But the sound is. I dont see a problem in adding a cam, most of the tuners, reputable ones in the Dallas area are good at what they do. I mainly stay in the DFW area, but I will take the car on road trips or up to missouri to see my father. I'm not 100% on a cam.
However, a little birdie told me of a prototype cam only LS6 that should be making 450rwhp. THAT would be worth it.

I think i'm going with the PRC "Gold" double spring, looks like its good to .660 lift

Yea, i have a feeling i'm going to go with the biggest cam that will fit an LS6 with out flycutting.
