You will need tuning with just about any cam you go with that'll make you power. Seems from your statement you have a misconception of LS1-Edit anyways. It's a good thing when done by the right person. That alone sometimes will net ya 10 - 20 HP. If I were you and wanted to go middle of the road I'd get either a 221 or a 224 duration cam. Make it worth your while. Might as well drop the whole 6200 thing. Your cutting yourself way short of what that STOCK bottom end will hold.

I got a 224/581 cam with headers and LITTLE bolt-ons....and it is a daliy driver 6-speed.
I am close to the 400rwhp range with stock heads. Call up a well know sponsor on this board like speed inc....They have done tons of these set ups and will take good care of your needs. Oh yea I love to scare those new cobras to
,,,good luck
