Default texas-speed 231/237 right for me or bigger

Need some opinions on my future cam selection. To fully benefit from the cam I am changing my exhaust to pacesetter lt's and tsp ory, as well as swapping out my slp resonator for a borla bullet. I am also adding the tsp ported ls6 oil pump and a new double roller timing chain. Now all thats left is my cam selection, I was thinking about the Texas-Speed 231/237 camshaft. I really want a large camshaft but I dont know if this will fit. Will it? Could I go bigger and put in the Texas-Speed 234/239? I also plan on dual valve spring and titanium retainers as well as chromoly rods. And dont worry 4.10's will be added also, and no I dont race dig. Any other info needed should be in my sig below thanks guys.

If you dont have supporting mods such as gears you will hate yourself later on down the road. The 231/237 is a nice mild-knocking on the door of the bigger cams-type. you will want to have atleast 3.73's to have some low end grunt, but other than that, sounds like you have the clutch and the bolt-ons with full exhaust for the job.

The other thing is...LS2 chain will save time and money. I have a double roller, and it was nothing but an assbeating for fittament and what not to install.
