Default mti x1 vs. TSP T3 camonly

MTI x1 cam shaft 230/227 .591/.571 112 lsa
vs. TSP torquer V3 231/234 .643/.598 111lsa

Which cam would make more power and have the best drivability assuming 6500 rpm rev limit. Stock Ls1 heads, ls6 intake, long tubes, no cats. 3.42M6

If that combined city and highway, its not to bad for a big cam.

I went with the X1. Had MTI install it Friday. Put down 403.1 rwph w/ud pulley through a M6. Drives awsome and sounds good.
