Re: Gimme some input PLEASE!!! If you are going to be running 1 7/8 headers I would look into thunders reverse split 230/224 cam That cam LOVES a free flowing exhaust.
The cam uses the extra duration on the intake side to compensate for the "restrictive" intakes on the LS1's and with less duration on the exhaust side a free flowing exhaust helps a lot. If anyone tells you that you want more exhaust duration with nitrous dont listen to them, unless you a spraying a BIG shot you need to get your car to run its best NA and just have the juice for that extra kick <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
This is definatly the cam I would go with, not that you would listen to me, I told you to go with an NX MAF!
