I think the Cheatr would be great in your Z06 and you could always add the headers at a later date....

LPE Makes good cams for the LS6, and the stock exhaust is real good on the ZO6 Too. IE I put Kooks system on with a nice cat back and made 12rwhp, just change the cam and springs, push rods, get it tuned and DRIVE it....

A full bolt on Z06 can make 390+ RWHP. I've driven one. My buddies car made 393 with bolt ons and an Ls6 intake. In fact I believe a couple of folks have made 400RWHP with bolt ons.

I Decided to wait until next spring to do my cam, so right now I'm going with long tube headers, high flow cat, an x-pipe and an under drive pully... What other "bolt-ons are there? I already have a vararam and 160 t-stat. Would I see any gains from a ported tb or am I not at that point yet? I'm hoping to see 390ish rwhp from bolt ons before I do my cam, I'll keep you guys posted in the next couple weeks

Get the CheaTR cam-it's made for setups like yours and for people afraid of a lope. It will have all the stock driving charachteristics but should be worth a solid gain. Do an underdrive pulley while your at it. Then you add headers later and still pick up power-it's been proven to work great with and without headers!

will the 918's be ok for the cheatr cam? i mean changing the springs will be no big deal every 10k miles, ill have to change the tires that often anyways
