I had that cam in my LS1 with stock intake/injectors, pacesetter 13/4 lt's, ory, lm1, and I got an 11.89 out of it with a 3600 fuddle stall. There aren't too many demands from that cam that any other cam would'nt demand: good tune bigger injectors, nice stall, and plenty air. Good luck with your build bro hope that helps you out...

I can't really remember what the MPG was but it wasn't too bad on gas I daily drove it aswell. The only thing that sucked about it is that I didn't have a good tune on it and it surged like crazy so just make sure you get a good tune. I traded the cam when my motor took a dump for a Nitrous kit that's goin on my new build!

I have friends with that cam and pacestter 1 3/4 header's ls6 intake and I believe they put down about 400 rwhp.I know I'm not 100 percent accurate on the numbers ,but regardless definitely a stout setup and hp numbers are not everything in regards of how your car perform's although the big numbers alway's sound nice ,with a good size stall (3600 at least seems to be the norm from what I hear)you should definitely enjoy the setup but I would suggest getting a fast intake to flow better with the bigger 1 7/8 headers and have better throttle response.3.73's in the rear would also make the stall more worthwhile but yeah definitely go bigger on the stall.Really no point in having those mods without the bigger aftermarket cam so that is a must.Good luck and I hope this help's.
