Default Cam kit

So I’m trying to purchase a cam kit for my 4.8 swap. I want to be able to rev it pretty high since eventually I’m gonna put a turbo on it. Give me some info on what you guys think I should get. The only thing I have done is ls6 intake and long tube headers. Also transmission I’m using is a T56

A stock ls6 cam might not be a bad choice. You probably need to contact a cam vendor for a custom grind though.

Nice mkiii! Surprised you didn't go 1jz or 2jz. Heard a conquest with a single turbo 1jz, fell in love.

Gotcha would it be good with boost for the future? Lol.

Thansk! I was gonna go 2jz but it’s was way too much money, and everyone who owns a mkiii usually does 1jz I wanted to be a little different lol
