Default LPE GT1-1 Camshaft

Am thinking to set an LPE GT1-1 Camshaft on a '02 Z06, and I decided to set the following parts too:

1- 1 7/8 Kook's long tube Headers with offroad "X" Pipe
2- B&B Bullet Exhuast
3- Vararam VR2B Cold air induction
4- ASP Crank & Alt Pulleys set
5- O2 Sims
6- Ported Throttle
7- LPE GT1-1 Camshaft + Double springs, locks, retainers
8- Custom Tune by LPE
9- Kirban billet short throw shifter

I need an experienced advices and opinions, and I'll be thanks full for any kinda help from you guys regarding my planes, and what is the estimated power that I'll gain with these lil parts.

IMO, kooks 1 7/8 headers are overkill..those are designed for 383 or bigger cubes.
That cam has a really high lift. You may end up replacing springs more often than not. just an fyi, you dont need a high lift cam to make power for these LSx motors, especially a Z06!

I like mine looking stock and quiet
3- Vararam VR2B Cold air induction
Go with a TRAP
4- ASP Crank & Alt Pulleys set
Sure
5- O2 Sims
Need 'em
6- Ported Throttle
Probably not worth it
7- LPE GT1-1 Camshaft + Double springs, locks, retainers
Ok - others are good too
8- Custom Tune by LPE
These guys know their stuff
9- Kirban billet short throw shifter
The BEST one I have ever used (tried BPP and B&M in my 02 Z)
