opinions on head/ cam combo??
Ok so ill have the money mid next month to get heads and cam for my ws6 Im looking for something street/ strip, not a DD, maybe drive twice a week (couple hundred miles) keep in mind I also would like to put a 100 shot on it later. Ive done the longtubes with 3 inch xpipe with spiralflows (no cats) dumped before the axle and a 3600 stall preparing for the changeover. Can you tell me a good head cam combo and power expected? Im having a hell of a time deciding. price not too much an issue, within reason

Talk to Texas Speed and Performance, or SNL Performance in Ft. Worth. They can both recommend some good combos for you. You are somewhat limited on head selection due ot the smaller bore of the LS1. A good set of CND'd 243's and a healthy cam like a MS4 or SNL v.X (the cam I'm running) would make some damn good power.

cam choice
I am trying to decide a cam as well. I have the same yank 3600 SS but its still a stock A4. So i am gonna go with the TSP 228R. Small enough i think i can get away without blowin somthing up like that weak 2nd to 3rd shift. Or that awful overdrive band.

Thanks for the info ... nice write up Allngn! Ive been doing alot of research and the TFs 215 seem the way to go.
Im also waiting on results from the fast 102 to make that decision!
The cam I'm still trying to figure out, but custom seems the way to go to get both worlds. I really dont want to break into the bottom end or do flycutting but we will see.

Your welcome bro, and good luck with your project. Hope see you making good power in the near future.
On a side note, if you are worried about you trans, then you may want to consider calling the boys at RPM and ask what they suggest. Can't wrong with a built RPM tranny.
Again good luck.

I already did the trans, we will see if it holds up. Mostly because on earlier builds that was what went out first A wise old man once told me to start from the back of the car and work forward, I think hes right
