take a look at this thread for small cams with lots of power.
And, just for reference my 216 duration cam made 397/394 SAE on the stock heads.

I was looking at that cam myself. 400rwhp potential, likes a small shot of nitrous. Designed as a cam only + bolt ons.
I asked AMS for a dyno graph but still no response. (A couple of days ago)

Probably the wrong thread to mention the LS6 cam... ![Winky](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_wink.gif)
With LS6 stock heads, LS6 stock cam, late block and intake + headers = 394rwhp untuned. Can you get more "stealth" than that?![Winky](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_wink.gif)
When guys say the LS6 cam is gutless, they are comparing it "spring busters"...

... that's also why I opted for a different stealth cam. Biggest thing is my increas in torque over stock way down in the RPM band.

Really? I dunno. At Vegas I outran all five Supercharged C5's for the "Quickest Corvette" honors. Guess I should get rid of the POS...

The Z06 cam is meant to be ran from 4500-7000. If you are not willing to spin it, don't bother with it.

for a point of reference what big cam did you use? How close to "almost stock" are you looking for?
224/220 116 +4
That cam should completely disappear on an 800 - 850 rpm idle. A 228/224 114 +4 would also idle like silk at 900 rpm, but have a little audible burble to it.

I was running a 230/224 on a 112LSA and I dont mind if it has a little sound to it I just dont want the car to shake so bad.And I wanto be able to lug around at 1100-1300 RPM without the car lunging. And most of all I dont want to hear the wife bitch about it when she drives it .
