Well have decided to go with an eps cam for my fifth gen. Gonna go with what geoff recommends. Already have headers and a rotofab cai and gonna go with the stock heads. Should I go with an underdrive pulley? What do you guys think. Will be doin this first of august. Can't wait...

Since you have to remove the stock balancer pulley to do the cam swap, it would be an excellent time to change to an UD Pulley. They are worth some ET and fuel economy gains.

Camaro5 is a worthless website that should come with a warning label like this "WARNING all technical information on Camaro5 is misleading and worthless" every time someone googles mod info and it directs them to Camaro5.
Just pay Patrick G to spec your cam when your ready and you will be pleased as punch

How drive able is it with that 3200 converter?
You need some Nitto tires or some suspension work. Your times are too high for what you have in it.

I have 20" Nitto DRs on it and a lot of red BMR parts under it.
There is room for improvement on the 60' time and that is on the driver. 
I just got back to racing after an almost 10 year break. I still think in the current configuration the car has at least an 11.7 in it.With me in it, the car is 4,100 pounds. When I compare times and my weight versus other Gen 5 cars, I am running right with them. The car needs to go on a diet and especially the 20" stock wheels.
