We can all give our opinions and dyno numbers, but what is perfect for one driver isnt always the best for the other driver.
Take our opinons for what they are worth, and make a choice.

What kind of power curve do you get with this cam, stock heads, ls6 intake, LT headers, lid, TB, MAF, tune. Do I need to upgrade injectors at this point or fuel pump. Would you lose any low end power over stock. My car is stock now but I'm trying to make a plan as I will be buying all parts next week if all goes as planed. My goal is to have streetable power down low and power up high of course. Car is 98 SS, m6, and I plan on keeping 3.42's for drivibility and some highway driving, thanks.
Does TR not furnish a spec card with cam? Could someone post the specs for this cam?
TR224-112
.006 int/exh duration = ?
Intake Center Line = ?

Numbers in sig, IRS is eating up a few of my ponies but I'm still very happy with it. My curve is as flat as Kansas. I'll see if I can find the graph.

To answer your other ones, you will be safe with your stock injectors. I still have mine. Stock gears are fine, but I am going to drop in some 3.73's just to help the bottom end some more.
Here is my graph for your viewing.

To the original poster. Yes. Those numbers look good. Check my sig for similar numbers.

well.. i got it back yesterday. It sounds mean. I was running open y pipe. Long tubes (no cats) then the y pipe and the exhuast wasnt connected. It sound mean. The car kept on dying on me though. It sucked! I was scared that i wasnt going to be able to drive the car back home from the shop, which was about 4 hrs away from my house! But finally, after driving the car around town for a lil bit i realized that i had to have the car above 1500rpm's or else the car would die. I was driving through LA when i hit down town around 6pm. I f*cking hate LA traffic. Stop and go. Good that i got my 3200 stall. Stop and by traffic for about an hour. The car pulls realy hard but i havent really stepped on it to where i pass 5500 rpm. Its waaaay to loud and annoying. Tomorrow im getting the car patched up at the exhaust shop. Hopefully the car wil be quieter, becuase its getting annoying. And im also getting it tuned, so hopefullly it wont die on my under 1500 rpm. Besides that... i have no complaints!
