http://www.ls1howto.com/index.php?article=23 will explain a pretty good bit on what the numbers mean. More information is needed as far as driveablity. Most people are happy with a thunder racing 224 114 cam. My tastes are much bigger 244/249 but some say thats extreeme

I would also recommend the TSP 233/233 torquer and the TSP 233/239 for midrange usable torque. While big hp numbers are impressive, the torque and where its ranges are, are the most important IMO when it comes to actual performance.
