well i found a comp cam that looks to be about what i want. its a hydraulic roller XFI 216/220 .525/.532 lift 114 lsa.
i like all the specs except i want 112 lsa. any suggestions?
i was also looking at TSP's website where you can select lobe specs and have comp custom grind a cam. i selected 214/216 duration .600/.590lift 112 lsa BUT i was wondering if that is too much lift, and it also has a place to select intake centerline which i dont know anything about.
open to suggestions

thats another thing i was going to ask about. i am going to be pieceing this together so it will go on at one time. would it be worth my time to have the stock heads milled a little to bump the compression up some and have them ported/polished? i'm not looking to buy some baller *** patriots or anything.

so far i like the stall i have never drove a truck with one before though. only complaint is the drop in rpm while shifting. it drops from 6 to almost 3. i dont know if tuning will help this since it is not tuned for the stall yet or the vette servo which i installed yesterday.

its a 3000 stall but today on the way to work it only dropped about 2000 rpms while shifting... What can i expect to see different after getting the tune.. right know the converter locks up between 35 and 40 mph i like that but does anyone have any suggestions for me when i get it tuned. It will be tuned tommorrow
