That looks just like MTIs Comp cam C2: 224/224 .581 and 112 or 114 lsa. That cam will work great with stock heads. Comp 918 or Manley springs are some good choices to go with. Best way in my opinion to buy a cam is through a cam package deal. You'll get the cam, springs, (retainers)>depending and the pushrods.

Love my C2 <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

Also sounds like a Thunder 224 grind. I'm on stock heads and I love mine.

From what I gather, Lunati makes the B1 and T1 and Comp makes the C1 and C2. I'm not sure of the others.

You can call ls1speed tech and thell order a grind to your specifications,
thats were i got mine from, there one of the cheapest to get a cam from too.
the 224/224-112 would do good for you
or a 224/227-112 would be very agressive.
