So what cam would go good with a Radix?
I saw someone on the board runnin a comp cam 212/218. Would that work good with a 3000 stall, bolt ons, and a charger?

How do you conclude this BlownChevy? The numbers look good to me..? (204/218 .555/.551 117.5 lsa) they are big lobes w/ lots of area to them.
FWIW guys here is the pt# for '02 LS6 springs if you need it: 12565117
