Default A little help from my buddies...

I just picked up an '02 Z06 cam. I have no doubt that this is going to really help my car out. I am most familiar/comfortable posting in the FI section, so some of these questions may seem off topic.

1.) What are the specs for the LS1 cam in an '01 z28?
2.) Besides new pushrods and valve springs, what else should I get to throw in at the same time?
3.) I'm fighting heavily with myself, do I get the a kit from alkycontrol.com or do I buy a torque converter? What's your opinion?
4.) W/ 85K on my car right now and the fact that it'll be pushing over 500 rwhp. What should I expect to go first? My rearend? #7? Or my transmission?
5.) How long is my engagement going to last if my fiance' found out I just bought a new cam instead of hiring the DJ? ((hahahaha))

My question about stalls... again... wrong section, mods don't kill me If I take off from a stop now and my tires spin me, won't taking off from 3400 just be pointless?
