Question Cam time

SO IVE RECENTLY STARTED LOOKING FOR CAMS FOR MY 99 WS6 "LS1". JUST LOOKING TO SEE IF ANYBODY HAS ANY GOOD REFERANCES ON CAMS. I WANT A NIcE AGGRESSIVE CAM THATS GONNA GIVE ME GREAT TOP ENDPOWER AND A REAL NICE SOUND.

ONE OTHER THING I WAS LOOKING INTO WAS THE "LSA" NUMBER ON THE CAMS... IVE RESEARCHED AND NOTICED THAT THE STOCK CAM I HAVE HAS A 116LSA. IVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE BEST FOR THE LS1 IS 112LSA. IS THIS TRUE AND WHAT DOES THIS LSA NUMBER REPRESENT?

STOCK CAM : 202/210 int/exh @ 0.05" duration
0.496" / 0.496" int/exh lift
116 LSA

CAM I HAVE IN MIND "SO FAR" : 243/251 int/exh Lift Int. .624 Exh. .624 LSA 114° BY COMP CAMS

The first thing you need to do is post in the INTERNAL ENGINE SECTION .... this is the EXTERNAL ENGINE SECTION. You in the wrong section. You will get more responces if you do that.
