My cam specs
226/230 598/600 113lsa+4
2002 z06:
Arh 1 7/8" headers with 3" x-pipe (no cats)
vararam cai with vararam powerduct
underdrive pulley
above cam
wanted a cam that would have a good powerband for the street and open track events. Was not looking for a max power cam install. What do you guys thinks?

I made a couple assumptions on your cam profile since I didn't have your .006" and .200" lift durations. I also assumed stock LS6 bore, stroke, rod length, 64cc chambers, & MLS .056" head gaskets. That cam calculates to a 8.33 dynamic compression ratio.
I would personally tighten up the LSA to 112° or even 111° to bump the DCR to 8.47 and get a little more idle lope. Either way, it will give you a lot more power and be very streetable with < 5° overlap at .050" lift.
