what cam should i use? ok, well im gonna start to build a stock-cube ls1, with forged internals. It will be a high compression motor with NO nitrous. i was wondering what is a good streetable cam for a stock-cube ls1 w/ high compression? (like 11 to 1 compression)

I have a 230/236 .592 .602 112lsa custom grind from Comp. I like it a lot. It pulls hard everywhere. Streetable is totally subjective. You can go really big and maintain good driveability if the tune is up to par. I have 11:1 compression and this thing runs like a champ. I run a lot of timing as well (cuz this thing bleeds off a ton of it).
What are your plans and goals for the truck? I would assume since you mentioned something streetable...that you want something that is going to kick *** on the street cuz that is where it is going to see most of its time. Look at something like the "Patrick G" cam. It makes great useable peak power and has tons of low end for the street....to get your truck moving!!
Hope this helps
