I'd keep the cam in there and throw a nice set of rockers on it to up the lift. And definitely throw a converter in there to take full advantage of the cam.

The other reason I was considering the stock cam again for a while was Im not 100% sure which cam this is (since I was just told it was). At the time I thought the guy knew what he was talkin about. After a while of me learning and I guess he wasn't, I realized he didnt know anything about cars. So at least if I get another cam Im sure which one im workin with. The rocker swap is a good idea though.

Took my 00 Z28 to the track this past Sunday. Mods on the car are a K&N FIPK, some cheap Ravin muffler, I heard it's a flowmaster knock off, All the free mods. Running on radial sumic tires. I think It has had hypertech tuning on it also. I'm pleased with the results at the first time running at a track.

R/T .198
60' 2.06
330 5.773
1/8 8.78
MPH 82.31
1000 11.334
1/4 13.50
MPH 103.35

Took my wife's car to the track Sunday...13.00@107.35mph. I was shocked! There were 3 other stock LS1 cars there running 13.40's-13.50's. I'm beginning to think her's is a freak car..

At my track stock LT1s run 14.9-15.1 and stock ls1s run 13.9-14.2. An LS1 GTO was going 15.2s and an LS2 GTO was going 14.4s.. not sure on !driver mod but that was what they were consistently doing. Really depends on your track, weather, etc and how others are doing with similar mods.
