Default Gm847

I think i'm going to switch from my hotcam to the gm847 cam. Is anybody using this cam happy with the power and rpm range? Is this cam similar to the cc306, that is what cam my dad has and it pulls hard up top. Anyway what changes should i upgrade to? I was planning on going with compcams 918 beehive springs, the locks and retainers, lifters, and some vortech 1.6 roller rockers. I have never heard of these rockers they are aluminum and are full rollers do you think i should use these? Also what numbers at the track and what hp numbers are you putting down? This will be with longtubes,electric waterpump,pcm forless tuning, and rollerrockers.

Thanks for the help, Josh

Similar but makes more peak power and I have heard has a little more power in the lower ranges than the CC306.

Your part list looks good, although I have never heard of those rockers either. You will need a good tune, also is your car a A4 or M6? A4 you will need a at least a 3k stall mabey alittle more. Also heads down the line will be a big help.
