    for a LS1 id run a low 230s cam with a 3600 stall with least 410s. if tuned right will drive stock and have good mannors and pull strong.

    220 in a LS1 isnt even worth it, its to small for a 5.3 rather alone a ls1

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    you can also see 380 to wheels with stock cam and good set of heads. if you want 220 then go for it. Ive tuned a Ls1 that was stock with exhaust to 355rwhp/370rwtq. so 380 is only 25rwhp gain, for same price of a mans cam you can have over 400 rwhp. it comes down to what you want

    Well i cant afford a transmission right now lol so idk if 400 would be good for me at this point. Id like to have something decent for now and then slap some heads on down the road to give me that 400 mark.

    Im not set on a 220 but id like to run no bigger than a 3200 stall.

    run 3200 stall, get used set of ported 243s and call it a day. for the money spent on the heads would be same price of Cam kit with 100% stock drivablity with more power

    you wont lose any MPG since its your DD

    Im running a 24x/24x .61x/.61x on a 112 lsa.... Still going to drive the truck on the street on the weekends. Id say at least run a tsp228 or bigger. Why not call tsp and a few other places and see what size they would recommend...
