I assume you're talking about the new thunder T-rex cam, which is 242/249, and has just been released onto the market last month? 
Please, KNOW BEFORE YOU SPEAK!!

Cams this big are not uncommon in stroker LT1s.

Please, KNOW BEFORE YOU SPEAK!!there are PLENTY of LS1 cams out these days that are bigger than what the LT1 guys are considering big. however most of them do not publish their cam specs.
the Trex, g5x3, magic stick, some fms customs, carteks, etc

i doubt that will ever happen with LT1/4 style heads........you might get 450-475rwhp with badass AFR LT4's and a bigass hydraulic cam........maybe 500rwhp if you want to use a solid roller
