Default Remarks/Help on cam choice..

I know i should post in internal section but im sure id get a "search" remark plus id rather speak to guys more local to me, seeing and hearing a car with these cams would help. Im looking to do a cam swap on a bolt on 02 Z28 M6. it has all the bolts ons except EWP. id like a cam with some nice loop to it. here are my three thoughts/choices. They are all TSP cause im very pleased with there customer service and power/torque numbers

TSP 233/239
233/239, .595"/.603" 112LSA
1900-6500 RPM Power Band

TSP Torquer v.2
232/234 .595/.598 112LSA
1800-6400 RPM Power Band

Magic Stick V.3
237/242 .603/.609"
2300-6800 RPM

Give me some insight or opinions on these choices. its between these three. I like the power of the MS3 yet everyone who likes it recommends rodbolts or prayer thanks to the high power band. Im leaning towards the 233/239. most guys are making 385-410RWHP and 370-380 RWTQ which is more than enough for me. The car is not a daily driver and will have 4.10s going in with the cam.

the torquer v2 is my dream cam. and you have an 02 ls1 so why would you even worry about rod bolts? you have good bolts bolts in it already from the factory it was earlier ls1s that had the "rod bolt problem." and i would recommend ms3 because that with 4.10s is a killer combo.

Do the torquer 3. Supposed to be good for a little more power and a little better drivability.
