If that doesn't work like close to stock then nothing will for an LS7, keep you stock cam in IMO.

I would migrate to the EPS sleeper cam too.

PS: Cam Motion grinds EPS camshafts, but the lobe design is not the same. They both have their own proprietary lobe profiles. CamMotion grinds a lot of different vendor camshafts as well. Same with Comp (who grinds the Katech cams using Comp lobes).

Not to hijack the OP... but it was always my understanding and from friends experience that headers wouldn't do much over factory mani's that flow very well the 3" H pipe.. unless you did a cam, then LT's show good gains. What kind of gains at the tires realistically can you see with stock cam, but redone heads with bowl blending untouched intake ports and fully machined exhaust ports, milled .030 with a MSD intake , ported LS7 TB, CAI, and the smaller bolton tidbits? Asking for factual matter not opinions thanks guys. Are LT's worth it for everything but still using the stock cam?

Yes. Long tubes IMO are worth it, even without touching heads.
