Some more endorsements for my Whiplash cam
WOW! I had the SAME idle problems and a hot start issue with my 02 ZO6 after I installed my EG WHIPLASH CAM, 42 lb injectors and FAST 90/90.
BILLDOG350 (Bill) helped me do the initial VE tune and he adjusted the timing and PE tables which fix most of the serious drive ability issues and that initial tuning made the car drivable. I used Bills tuning to cruise on down to Bowling Green KY for the Cruise In.
I even got 25 MPG on the way down. Just had the idle surge (worse when AC was on) and hard starting when it would stall.
I had ENGLANDGREEN fix my hot start and Idle issues. He had that those issues fixed in about an hour. Stephen is amazing fixing those weird issues!
. He even fine tuned it for a little better fuel mileage On the way back to CT,,,I got 28 MPG on his WHIPLASH CAM.
STEPHEN! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR TUNING HELP!!! Car is running excellent
Now,,,only if my clutch would quit smoking.

As has been stated by many good tuners in the past, almost ALL cam's are tunable to be "drivable" by the right person. I went mild (medium) with my cam choice because I knew I was planning on doing most of the tuning myself and I didn't think an agressive cam would be tunable.
Now after a few years of tuning experience, I've come to realize the cam is part of it, but the tuner is the key. The EG whiplash cam is WAY more aggressive than my G5X1 equivalent cam and I was able to get Bill's car running about 90% as well as mine...and EG was able to take it the rest of the way to full drivability and peak economy. Bill likely has between 40 and 80rwhp more than me yet his cam is still very drivable and doesn't surge at low rpm.
In hindsight, I'd go BIGGER with my cam (I was VERY impressed with the ease of EG's whiplash tunability).
Keep in mind CLUTCH choice goes hand in hand with a cam. I have a very grabby on/off Textrailia OZ700 that is very jumpy with my cam. I'm sure it would be much smoother with a stock cam. Inversely Bill's car drives very similar to stock with his LS6 clutch but I bet it will be a bit worse with a really grabby one.
