the ls6 heads are cool if they are 02 and up. the ls6 cam is gonna be a waste of time and money once you figure out after having it in the car and researching that you should have gone with at least a 224. as for the intake jus go with an ls6

Yeah, dont waste your time w/ the Z06 Cam. Get something better...good ol' TR 224 wont hurt. And skip the Weiland, too, like Santiago said. LS6 will save you from heat sink.

Well, I already bought the cam and intake for great deals. As far the heat soak thing goes, there are alot guys that say different things about it. The intake was a mere 200 dollars and I think it was well worth it. Plus I heard it was better for spraying set-up's.

Well, I think I'd still pick up another cam over that Z06 Cam, instead of wasting your time.

224/224 it is then. Is that 12.76@115.85 with a 100 shot? I hope not.
