Default Thoughts on this cam
246/244 .613/.614 on a 114

This would be going in a 01 zo6 stock heads with the usual bolt ons. Any thoughts or input would be great.

Very similar to my Mega Death from HPE, puts down great numbers with stock heads.

This is exactly what i was thinking. Also the springs would obviously be changed . This would be a stock ls6 intake with the 90mm t/b lpe adapted to it. Long tubes, under drive pulley,etc......

Car is going to be used mainly for roll-ons. Like my previous car.

Too big of a cam for that type of intake or purpose of your motor.
The trick to power on the street (not dyno power) is a balanced combo.
Be careful and research lots more, give us a full mod list done or wish to do along with purpose of car so we can make some suggestions.

Way too big, will have driving issues and gas mileage will be terrible.

Do I really have to say this? No driveability issues with proper tuning and I get pretty good gas mileage with a TRex and 4.11s.

Exactly! Same here, it can be done, has been done and will continue to be done because it works!
