I have a TSP 233/239 in my 346 with CNC LS6 heads. 233/239 is the right cam for a 346, peak power at about 6200. The guys here are telling you the right thing, you need more stick for a 416.

To the rest of you, these are not cathedral port heads with 2.02 valves. You do not need as much duration on these heads to make power with them as you do with a smaller head.

Both Vengenance Racing and LME are making BIG POWER on their 416 L92 headed motors, and I would call them and go with a cam of their recommendation suited for your heads and given application and your given use for your car.
