Alright guys Here is my situation

This winter ill be doing ls6 intake, LT's and Porting/milling my 853's on my C5 unless I find some used 243/799 heads locally

My question is In my last car I had a 228R, Lt's, stock heads and intake and made 375whp. that cam was great for a daily but am I stupid for wanting to go bigger than that?

I want to get the best cam for my heads which will most likely be the ported 853's and ill bump the compression just a bit while they are off.

Should I skip the ls6 and just go straight for a fast? I also have the option on a good deal on a used fast 78mm. which i believe they dont make anymore.

I also found a used MTI X1 cam. they sound awesome from videos ive watched but Ive heard its a reverse split cam (dont know what that is).

What would you guys suggest? My goal is 400whp with decent street manners, I dont mind some surge

I wouldnt mind the 228 again but I think I could handle going a tad bigger

Contact Martin 'Tick' don't use a s/h cam, Go for a Fast but skip the 78mm
