Is your Z a daily driver? You looking for something streetable?? In my previous expirences the TR 230 is a very good cam for cam only applications. should put you in the 380 to 400 rwhp range.

Thats prolly the cam id go with, but its up to you. You'll will def notice a difference... if properly tuned. Do some research. the tr 224 would also be good.. may not sound as "nasty" as you want but it'll put out power.
