Default PP LS6 style heads

Does anyone know or have any opinions on what cam would work best for these heads? Since it's better to match a cam with the heads for best performance. This would be for an A4 as well with all bolt ons.

The TSP 231/237 is a proven combo that works well...Also their Magic stick, has been producing good #'s. Personally I'm running a G5X-3 and putting up real good numbers with the heads. 448rwhp through A4 with a PYE 3600 converter and ET streets only running 26PSI...Any of the 3 cams that I mentioned should yield some good results. However all 3 cams also need a large converter. I have since upgraded my 3600 to a 4200, and it made a world of difference. Also I would suggest some shorter gearing also.

I was thinking of those cams but was also told a 232/240 112 would work good. Or would this be almost to big?

What do you think is to big. Is it you DD or the weekend car. With that size cam it might run into P/C problems

Too big is having to flycut pistons. It is a weekend car but may be driven a little during the week. In summer that is.

my cam is high 240's and lower 600's and i drive it on the street and the weekend, and it is ok, not the best but ok. Little big for NA power, but good for the N2O
That is with cnc and hand PP LS6 heads.
I would say in the area of 230-234 236-240 and 581-590 on a 112-113
JMO, But that is the ball park id be looking.

The 231.237 camshaft seems to work very well with the Patriot LS6 style heads. We've also just finished up a magic stick that clears stock pistons, and next we'll try to get it to clear ported heads
