I saw you mention you wanted around 400rwhp NA...I HIGHLY doubt you will get there with that 212/218...just my

Ya I realized that. The cam is more for low end to get this beast moving. The nitrous is to compensate for the fact it won't be that fast NA. I don't want a cam that moves the RPM range too high, because the stock cam is bad enough off the line. Grandmas with walkers have better 60' times then me. I will eventually get a 2500-3000 stall converter (leaning towards 2800 currently) to help a little, but I don't want an engine I have to redline nonstop to be 'fast'. I plan on spraying from 2800-5800 or so in each gear. If I ever run into some extra money, I'd like to get a 6.0 block, transfer these worked heads, and I'd probably buy a different cam at that time. The price was right on this one, and it was recommended to a guy who had similar suspension/tires as me.

Like I said my buddy has a 02 z28 with a larger cam, and a 3200 (or so) stall, and it is a PAIN to drive on the street. The truck will barely ever see the strip, it's more something for me to cruise to Dairy Queen on Sundays, occasionally open up on backroads. It goes off road, it tows, it's used as a truck more then a race car...but I still have a really heavy foot.

My friends ss454 silverado runs a mid 13, and that truck is realistically plenty fast for what I want (of course, once I hit mid 13, I'll want high 12's)
