Which cam for a 403 LS2 Now alot of ya'll i know are going for peak numbers, and drag racing. I... am not. I autocross and i stay in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd MOST of the time, other than that i drive my car daily. I'm wanting to go with a 403, can anyone help me choose a good cam for this motor, that with an LS6 intake and ported 243 heads, that i can get 475-500hp out of?

So are you saying a cam closer to a 112 would be better? or the other way and say a 115-116? I dont want a whimpy sounding stroker! lol
