Another which cam thread? 4 choices Going into a stock 241 headed 02 ls1 with a t56.....which is going into a 89-93 mustang coupe. Car is going to be a mainly street car but will be taken to the strip a few nights out of the summer. Dont mind it not being a daily driver type cam. Here are the choices I have narrowed it down to in the order of which I have in mind and I do NOT want to flycut. Hoping for 420rwhp with ls6 intake and kooks long tubes, dont plan on doing an underdrive at the moment. Car will have a minimum of 4.10s.
EPS 236/248 .615 .615 110lsa
Vindicator 240/244 .605/.596 112lsa
MS4 239/242 .649 .610 not sure on which lsa
Polluter 24x/24x .61x .61x 112lsa
EPS 236/248 .615 .615 110lsa
Vindicator 240/244 .605/.596 112lsa
MS4 239/242 .649 .610 not sure on which lsa

Any particular reasons over the cams above, i reallly had it narrowed down to them from the research ive done. The EPS cam is top of list due to everyone saying how is it is on the valvetrain and such.
I would contact Geoff at EPS like said above or patrick G on here. Given that it's going to be a light notch back i would go with a bigger cam. especially if you're saying it's going be getting some steeper gears. get rid of the 241's when you can and step up to the 243's especially when going with a bigger cam. cams in the 24x on the intake should be in your alley.

Im a big guy(6'4" 285) so raceweight will prolly be 3150lbs or so with full interior. Should be a fun ride compared to my 4150 raceweight in the cadillac with less power on motor lol. I shouldnt have a problem pulling the cadillac on the bottle with the cammed notch.
I just put a very similar cam in my car, only difference is it's a 111 lsa +2, as soon as I get my longer pushrods I can get it back together. 
IMO, go with the EPS (or have EPS custom spec a grind) since it's at the top of your list, and there's a good chance you'll need to fly-cut anyway.

Between those i would opt for the Vindicator. I would probably run the MS3 instead of the MS4.
PM sent. 
I would give Josh at Spartan Performance a call. He could spec you a custom cam for the same price as the other guys(cam motion, eps, ect.). He got me the perfect cam I was looking for and after almost a year with it, I still love my cam.
You're looking for something more aggressive, but still easy on the valve train for a street car. Let Josh hook you up he's got over 10+ years of experience with modifying LS engines.
