I have an 02 Z06 and I picked the Texas Speed 228R cam. I hope I complete the project this coming weekend. I did it in my garage and left the hood on. It's not that hard just need to take your time and make sure everything is right. Check out the LS1Tech.com forum for Gen III LS Internal forum. Those guys have been alot of help. Also check out LS1HowTo.com. Good info there also. Some guys don't like the LS1HowTo site but it's been very helpful for me. And as always the guys on this forum are always very helpful.

I have 01 Z06 as well, i just completed my H/C project last week went with 243 ported heads and TSP Torquer Cam V2, pretty aggressive Cam but with my half azz tune i dialed to some extent to drive nice, still need pro tune though.

I have a 228/232 .585/.595 113 LSA brand new Cam let me know if you are interested.

This cam would be perfect for what you are looking for. I am running a 224/230 and love it as well.
