I second the Z06 cam, turbos are realling funny about the cam. I went with a lingefelter GT-7 turbo cam and I am loving it. Its the same cam they are putting on their twin turbo vettes. And the plus side is you cant even tell there is a cam in it, it will idle better than stock plus give you but loads of top end with the turbo.

I really like the way this cam performs, with street slicks and converter I havent gotten any better than a 1.6 60', but it did drop my 1/4 mile time about 7 tenths of a second. I went from a best 12.2 (I think I still had some tuning issues) to a 11.6 after the cam. I am taking it back out there this weekend to test and tune some more. Our elevation here is around 2500' ASL. On the street is a different story I can't catch traction at all from a dead, and from a role @ 40 it will still get sideways.

I hope this helps some.
