Big Cam Suggestions Needed I plan on doing a H/C swap on my 2001 stock bottom end. The heads will be 5.3L ported for use of stock size valves, 11:1 CR, and no milling. I am also doing all the bolt-ons like exhaust, pulley, electric water pump, MAF, and so on. I want a cam for max power for hydraulic lift and 150 shot of nitrous. I am looking at Lunati's 237/242-112, TSP Magic Stick, LS1Speed's 242/250-114, and Thunder Racing's T-Rex. Which one of these or if other suggestions for what I am looking for?

I would have whoever is doing your heads custom grind a cam to match it. Any decent performance shop should be able to make you a cam custom matched to the heads with nitrous in mind. The majority of the big cams out right now are made for maximum effeciency with the stock heads. Most of those would require fly cutting as well to clear the valves.
