Talk with Dave Ameduri @ Livernois Motorsports they are in Michigan (dearhorn)

dameduri@livernoismotorsports.com

He is super friendly and responds very fast. I have their stage 3 package on my Z06. they have a nice stage 2 cam that would do well in yours.

Drivability is not an issue with stage 2, but remember the tune is everything My Stage 3 drives great even in traffic

tell him James from gave you his email

they netted 530/485 rear wheel with the stage 2 kit.

Are you doing the work and tuning? If not, start with the tuner. He should know what cams he can tune to achieve your drivability goal. If you're doing the tune, how skilled and patient are you?

Cams with 2* to 10* of overlap can be made tame for stop & go traffic in Z06 depending you the tuner. A 230/238 114 is a good starting point for a discussion with your tuner.

Also if you do search, you might have more luck in the C6 Z06 forum.
