Run a 7.4 pushrod
Springs: Comp cam 921s or similar (I run mine on PSI 1511, I like it light, titanium retainers)
Pushrods will have to be measured.

I'm interested in the toro too. But I'll be running a ss3600 3.23s ls6 mani and p/p 241s.

I'm planning on running a tsp 370 later how would this cam perform in said 370?

A lot of people are scared of an early EVO and exhaust duration.

There is more to a power-curve than just a percentage of intake flow. One has to observe what all the valve events do for each other and what is the result of that symbiosis in the power-curve. Highest peak hp does not necessarily mean quickest.
