f13 or f14
i dont recommend any cam with the stock stall...no fun to drive as it is with the stock cam. stall should always come first, as it puts you right in the heart of the LS1's power range
you wanna tell me how driving habits and frequency WON'T dictate the length of spring life?

This is the cam I originally recommended for him, but look at his other mods. He is looking for strictly top end, so thats the only reason i left the F13 and told him to go bigger. True, the F13 would give him a broader power band, but with the 4000 stall, he doesnt have a lot of rpm to play with anyway. Besides, it will strictly be a track car as I understand
It will but not the way you think it will!! You will not have to change springs every few months more like every few years with that cam. That cam and the right valve springs should last a for a long while..

Verdad Gallardo bro, i'm not the one that said every few months. the original poster said that, and he was exaggerating what I told him. let's keep on topic here
2002 Z28 Camaro A4 with Trickflow 215cc heads milled to 62cc, Harland sharp shaft roller rockers 1.7 ratio, 232/236-646/612-114LSA cam, FMS chrome-moly hardened 5/16" push rods 7.500", ARP hex head bolts, FMS ported oil pump, LS6-2 timing chain, 30lb SVO injectors, SLP 85mm MAF, SLP Lid, K&N drop in, welded in sub frame connectors, Hooker longtubes, custom true duals with Magna pack mufflers, PTC 4400 Stall converter, built 4L60E, Strange 12bolt with 4.11 gears, Billet Specialties light weight rims 15X10 in the rear and 15X3.5 in the front, 28" tall Hoosiers in the rear, ported fast 90mm, NW TB, Custom Racetronix / Walbro 255 pump and dyno tuned by Allan Futral.
No hard feelings man. I myself recommended a few top dogs for him to speak with (Patrick G, Predator-Z & Alan Futral just to name a few) who have been around for a while and have plenty of experience with specs, building and testing. I realize my advice is subsequent to theirs, and he knows that. I'm no pro by a long stretch, but I have been around for quite a few builds and results, so I try to guide him in the best direction.

Thats cool man and would have to admitt that I would have done the same thing!! I am like you when it comes to building a motor, a novice. I do it for the fun of it. I've helped friends build there motors in the past but for some reason I let Allan build this one.. I am in the process of building a Iron 6.0l 408ci motor for my car and trust me I will be asking allot of questions along the way.. I've talked to Patrick G, he helped resolve an issue I was having with my car and helped get me into the 10's.
What rearend are you running? As far as Patrick G, his knowledge amazes me. He spec'd out a cam for me a while ago when I was still kinda learning...I had no idea there was that much to it. I learned how every little difference in grind came in to play. He made me realize that it is indeed a science. Anyway, sorry Darren, I know we're hijacking your thread here 
F13, don't waste your time on any of that other crap. Put a good head on there too and you will never look back. Remember, bigger isn't always better
I flycut my pistons after I milled my heads down. Didn't HAVE to but I did not want to push it close, didn't really want a new bottom end quite yet

Sounds like a nice motor youre putting in there What rearend are you running? As far as Patrick G, his knowledge amazes me.

good move. always good to stall first, you would hate a cam with the stock stall. anyway, i has the yank ss3600 on my 02 red z and i loved it. you will not regret it. the yank converters tend to drive tighter than most, so your 3600 will probably feel as tight around town as most 3200 stalls.
