Thoughts on these cam #'s: Experts please!!!
Thoughts on these cam #'s: Experts please!!! So I'm no expert on cam selection. But I did request a custom cam spec from a very reputable source and I'm curious what you guys think about it. I understand I may be asking for a layman's interpretation of an expert's advice. But I know at least a few people on here TRULY know what they're talking about when it comes to cam science.
My build is a C5 Corvette remote mount TT setup similar to UPP (front fender mount) with Garrett GT3076r's .63 ar. 317 heads, .051 gasket, stock bottom end LS1.
Cam spec: 226/235 .605/.610 114+5.
I asked for good streetability, quick spool and more emphasis on room under the curve than top end power numbers. This is a "near" daily driver but I want to feel it quick when I hit the pedal.

If you purchased the cam from a reputable source then don't worry about asking people on an internet forum what they think because they are just guessing. Also ask the cam guy what springs he recommends, I can guarantee it won't be factory blue springs with this application. Actually I would have thought he would have recommended some springs to be used specifically for this application.
All of that being said from one internet forum member to another I say it looks good to me but those specs are pretty generic and don't tell you much about what it actually is.
