Looking for the best combo for street performance..

Ok guys-

I have the car in my sig..

I am looking for the best cam/heads for a quick car on the streets..

I'm not lookin' to street race, or run on the track, I just want a faster car.. Every now and then I'll run'em on the roads, but just not like I used to..

I want the power to know it's there, not to be blitzing off the line at every red light next to some kid in an Integra..

I have all the mods in the sig and am planning an ASP Pulley and an LS6 intake with or before the cam/heads package..

I've considered regearing the rearend, but don't think I'll do that just yet..

I've always liked the looks of the TR224 cam, actually had one once, but never took it out of the box..

Anyway, I've got the bug again..

Just thought I'd see what everyone thought given today's selection..

Thanks

Jeff

Depends on your budget. My 228/228 custom grind with a 113 lsa and afr 205 heads put down 450rwhp and 411rwtq. A lot of power under the curve, no surging at all, very good street manners. Good luck with the buildup.

You can find used TR224s in abundance on this site. Can't go wrong with them...especially on a 112LSA.
