Cam and Piston selection
Cam and Piston selection I dont know what kind of cam and pistons to run with a this setup. Its going to be a LS1 stock cubes with stock rods and crank. With a ARP or Katech stud and bolt kit, FAST intake and TB, stock heads, around 3000 stall, LT headers and ORY, and 3.73s

Why stock heads!?
Thats going to limit the usefulness of any cam.
Pistons, just get some flatops with valve reliefs and a proper set of heads first. Otherwise just stick with something small.

Why stock rods?? If you're already tearing the motor down to drop new pistons in, might as well do some new rods... Port your heads while everything is apart. Have Pat G spec you up something, shoot him a PM. Or Pred Z.

i dont even think you should bother with pistons to be honest, i mean they are actually going to cost you power bc of weight most likely, just run the stockers and fly cut them if u need to, i just dont see it worth tearing down the motor for just pistons alone
Im not just tearing down the motor for pistions. Im going through it cause it has 150k on it.
Well i know a lot of guys that are running stock heads with cam, intake, exhaust, gears, and stall and running decent times. So the stock heads work decent to some extent.
