you probably wont harm anything with just the cam and the ls6 intake and stock injectors but i will get it tune!! do you have headers? i think is going to be short on the 400rwhp!! with an underdrive pulley, cam and intake i think it will be in the 350-370rwhp

Do not take it over 4K rpm you are bound to hurt something specially if its still has a factory tune.

You've come this far...be patient and don't open her up until it's tuned. You'd feel pretty stupid if you broke it b/c you were impatient. Not to mention...until it's tuned, it's honestly probably slower than stock.
