Well i'm buying a cam for my 1994 z28 but there are so many i dont know what would work well with my car its stock exept for cold air intake and i hollowed the cat out. but i would like it to pull better top end i was thinking about getting this one but i didnt know if it would be to much for the stock heads or make it idle really rough
DURATION LIFT (1.5) LIFT (1.6) LOBE
COMP CCA-224-230-12 224 230 . 503 .510 .537 .544 112 1900-5600 rpm

but it would be a big help if you could help me out

 

You will need a good set of headers to take advantage of the cam, and a tune for sure. That cam will work well with stock heads though if your heart is set on it. The idle is very nice in 6 speeds and still pretty decent in auto cars too.

 

K well is hypertech a good tuner or what are some good ones?

 

dont go with the hypertech. try a mailorder tune like pcmforless.com

 

I ran that cam on stock heads and loved it. You really need to get some Headers tho, the idle is pretty choppy and sounds great, will need a good mail order tune or a dyno tune to drive nice. If your an automatic you will need a stall first, I drove it without a stall for a while and the car drove like crap. If your a stick you are fine. Not sure where you are willing to rev the motor but it will want to be shifted upwards of 6300-6400 for maximum performance.

 

The stock valve springs may have a difficult time dealing with lifts above 0.500" or rpms above 5,500. You may want to consider upgrading valve springs and take the opportunity to install 1.6 RRs.

 

True, I wouldn't trust any aftermarket cam with stock springs.
