Best cam for stock heads, intake? TR230?
I can't do it all at once so i'm just doing a cam and headers right now. I will be getting tuning if I go with a bigger cam. I will also be doing stage 2 heads and an LS6 intake this time next year. I wanted to go with the TR230 because it's tried and true. Will this cam be good for a year with no heads/intake? I put down 331/338 now with lid and filter, will I put down 380/370 after the cam and headers? I'm doing QTP 1 3/4 heads with the dual cutout y-pipe. I will probably end up getting tuning right now as well since thunder does free upgrades for a year anyway. I will get the heads/intake/ported TB etc... before the year is up. Is this cam a good choice or is there a better choice. What do you guys think and why?
Also, the cam kit comes with SINGLE 918 springs. Are those enough for this cam? It used to be considered big but the lift is pretty small, .569/.561. Would double REV springs be better? Thanks.

Who's heads are you thinking about getting? I would tend to pick out heads first then match the cam to what's know to work best with the heads you've selected.
