I'm running 240/244 .608/.612 112 lsa and I love it. It has lots of lope, idles at 975, and makes just enough power down low to be a good daily driver. Making about 500rwhp on a dynojet @ 6000 rpm.

244/244/112 in my old 422 and I made 475rwhp/505rwtq thru a 9" and thru 28" slicks so 500rwhp in a M6 vette no problem.

DUDE,

Glad to see your alive and kicking and still are doing the GEAR HEAD thing with your Slammed Vert!!! You should be in good shape for the street with what you selcted and if you want to go more radical i really like the recommendation from the other dude here running a 409 engine.

I love my cam more and more. I had some more fine tuning done, and the car is running stronger than ever. Pulls hard down low, and runs like a raped ape past 4000 rpm. Almost too much power for the street.

I dont have times yet, but I'm beating my friend on the street who runs 10.90s on all motor. So I'm expecting to get some mid tens once I get my ASP Pulley on and QTP headers installed and some more fine tuning.
