better choice
ok deciding on a daily driver cam for my '00 WS6 all stock 6m 40kmiles. Im putting ls6 springs, valves, rods. possibly milling the heads if price is right 62cc? im on a tight budget. would a LS6 cam or GM hot cam(ok with stock springs???) be the better choice for a daily driver. I don't want to sacrifice much low end grunt, idle quality and mpg. I have a car in the garage for that sort.

thanks for the response. you mentioned the idle? i would prefer a stock sounding idle will that give let me achieve that? if do go with the LS6 valves and pushrods will the geometry be ok? how about if i mill the heads?

What about the tr224 cam on like a 114lsa? That wouldnt sound much dif then stock and youll prolly get quite a bit more out of it than with the hot cam. Just my .02 either way you go good luck!

I'd go with MTI's Stealth II cam. It's a perfectly stock idle. Only a trained ear could really tell if it had a cam. Specs are 224/220 .581/.581 on a 116LSA. I had in my car for a while until I built the 383 I currently have. It ran like stock until you hit 2500 rpm, then it came on HARD all the way to 6500.
While MTI is no longer in business, you can still order this cam from any Comp Cams dealer. It's XER lobed. Shouldn't be hard to order.
