I run the cam in my sig, and my car is a DD. Sounds great, and is good on the streets. I really need to get a sound clip of it.

If you want something that will have good street manors and make a buttload of power under the curve with that M6 & have a nice lope, then look into the EPS 230/234 on a 111 with some advanced timing. Kick *** cam that will put the smack down.

I have the same cam as KevinR and it has a nice lope to it. If you wants something with extream lope get a cam ground on a 109 or 110 LSA. Just dont get to much lift or advance ground in the cam so you dont have PTV clearence problems. Plenty of companies offer custom cams and that should be perfect for you.

Would you rather have a cam that had good manners and ran hard, or just a lopey idle and **** the other two? Just curious...

Yes, stock 241's and no clearance issues at all. I think the closest it got was .080 on the intake if I remember correctly. I wouldn't really consider it a "huge lift" cam compared to the trak cam, MS4, and plenty of others. It is a bit bigger on the duration side, but it's basically a step down from the trex, which I did try first.

An MS4 will work no problems on a otherwise stock internal LS1 correct (obviosuly the springs have to be upgraded). No issues with PTV or need to flycut or anything like that correct? Is it even close to needing to flycut?

As long as you dont mind the mantence of a big cam. springs getting weaker over time due to aggresive ramp rates. something like a ms4 I would check every 10 to 15 thousand miles.

I also think you should look at the TSP torquer v2.get the cam pkg,cam,springs,push rods.you will need a cam swap kit,spring compressor,and maybe a timing chain.
