I'm using the TR push rods and crane dual valve springs. With the lift on the cam you will pick up quit a bit of valvetrain noise. TR said the cam would work on stock tune so I tried it with a superchips tuner and ran ok but when i got the tune it felt a lot better. I also have shorty headers so not getting all the torque.

what about a LS1 hot cam??? This cam kit comes with everything you need. I think it is a 119 with a 525 lift, and it comes with LS6 valve springs. its only 425.00 dollars, i dont no anything about it but it looks like a good cam

hot cam won't be good to tune. Go with something like a 212/220 or 220/220, or at max, 224/224. Unless you're goign with a larger-than-stock stall (2800+), don't go over 224.
