Car: 1999 Z28 M6, about 70,000 miles.
I would like to get a ballpark horsepower number that I can shoot for, and have some idea of when I dyno this thing if something is horribly off.
Heres the work that is getting done to the car:
Heads off a 2007 corvette coupe
LS6 instake
SLP long tubes
this cam
and a predator tune
What would be a good rwhp number to be satisfied with?

I am trying to keep this a daily driver, I am not familiar with what cam numbers mean, what is the next step up in terms of a cam that you guys would recommend for my application?

Wow why even put that cam in there? its way to small.. You can retain your daily driver like mine and smog it even legally with a 224 224 114 LSA... You would need stronger springs and hardenned rods but you will make way more power and retain your daily driver ....

also, Id strongly suggest diff. headers if its not too late. hooker long tubes almost drop right in compared to those damn SLP snake-mess headers. Ive installed several sets of headers and I'll try to never install those again. I believe you can get hookers now in stainless steel too. anything besides SLP long tubes.

I agree, Ligenfelter Performance doesn't know squat about small blocks

but i agree...that cam is gonna be puny.
