Default Advise on LS1 cam selection

Before I install the LS1 into my '68 vette, I wanted to upgrade the cam, timing chain, etc. I need some recommendation what cam to use. I plan on doing a lot of autocrossing and some road racing.

Hello Dan,

I can make some recommendations for you, are you interested in a custom cam or something off the shelf? If you could PM me the specs on your motor I'd be happy to help. Please include as much information as you can. C/R, induction (injection-forced-carb-etc), header size, ported or non-ported heads with flow numbers if you have them, valve size, transmission and car weight.
Or if you would like to give me a call I can go over some options with you.
