Default Head and cam that has biggest #'s

What would be the most streetable heads and cam setup that would make well over 450 rwhp? I would think AFR heads and a decent cam size. Maybe some of you already have a setup that does this already. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'd say AFR 205's with an X3. I know someone putting down 467 with that combo in a Z06. I don't believe he has a pulley either, and has the stock exhaust. He has headers, just stock exhaust.

Are you serious! A LS6 with AFR heads and X3 cam, making 467 at the wheels and he's still running through cats, stock muffler, and stock pulley.....really?!

I'm not positive on the mods. I know he has a Shaner TB, stock LS6 intake, AFR 205's, X3, and I think LG longtubes. I believe he has the stock exhaust past that, and stock pulley. But even if he has ALL the boltons those are good numbers I think.

Those X3 cams from LG motorsport, right? What spec are the X3 cam shafts. On the LG website, they just have 2?? and 2?? for specs. Does that mean you make up your own grind?

Some companies have tired to copy other companies cams in the past. That is probably one reason LG doesn't disclose the specs on the X3, or the new X4. And you really don't have to know the specs of the cam, just call LG and talk to them about it. They might not tell you exact spec numbers unless you buy it, but they'll definetely know what the cam can do.
