Default cam question

Hello all.....Anyone give a opinion on a TSP 233/239, 595/603 cam? Car will have stock LS6 heads to start with and stock gears in rear end. Longtubes of course. Any issues with a 112lsa or would a 113 be better? Car is a 02Z. Thanks for the info.......

That is the cam I will be ordering on Monday from Texas Speed. I will not be doing the heads. My tuner picked it. It will be going in next weekend.

Went with a comp 232/236, 595/603, 113 lsa. Also got the Dynotech 1 3/4 longtubes with cats. Will be installing as soon as the parts come in. Jeremy Fomato will be doing the tuning afterwards. Will probably let him port the intake and t/b as well. Lets see what she puts down! I'am thinking somewhere around 415-420 rwhp.

I ordered my parts yesterday. I should have the car done by Monday. I got the Texas Speed 233 239 cam with dual springs, and under drive pulley. Did you get your cam from TSP? I think you should be at 420.

My '01 Z06 with TSP's 233/239 (113 LSA) cam, their headers, and the typical bolt-ons, made 433 RWHP/400 RWTQ on a DynoJet. Stock longblock, heads, intake, injectors, and home ported TB. This combo pulls strong to 6,700 RPM, and probably beyond.

Actually all the parts got here last Friday except for the valve springs. Was told the Comp springs where on national backorder and it would be a additional 5 to 10 days. Hopefully they will get here this week and install will be completed over the weekend!
