Changed Cams.. Impressions I have been running the TSP231/237 cam for about 6 or 7 months now, and that is a LONG time for me! I pulled it out and installed a FMS custom cam. The FMS cam surprised me with the idle quality, it was much better than I expected. I just started it up for the first time this morning, immediately drove an hour and a half down to the Bham Fbody dyno day and strapped it down... 474.3 rwhp and 421.4 rwtq!!! 
That really impressed me, I was only hoping for 465 or so. All of this is still on the stock LS6 intake. I was kinda hoping for a little more torque, but that's not too shabby. At the same time I changed cams I added a TB that Cammin BeaSSt ported for me and an Electric WP. I'm also still running my "mail order" tune I had with the TSP231/237. I'm going to run this cam for 4 or 5 weeks and then try one of TSP's "magic stick" cams, along with a FAST intake.
Btw, I'm still running the "walmart" Patriot LS6 style's that have been on my car for around 8,500 miles. I'll make a post in the Dyno section in a little bit with some more info and the graph.
