Yep, I too bought the Hotcam kit when my motor was apart.
Sold the cam and springs on the For sale board and picked up a new CC306 and 986 valve springs, etc. Keep the rockers that came with the kit though.
I recently made 350rwhp with stock heads and a very conservative "summer" tune for 91 octane.

my current mods are: M6, moroso cai, bbk TB 58mm, msd 6al, msd coil, msd wires, jet hot long tubes ( no cat ) w/ flowmaster, foreged rotating assembly including wiesco 11:1 pistons, mcleod clutch, lca's, ranhard rod, torque arm, heads are ported and polished ( sorry no numbers), pro 5.0 shifter.
as for my shift point around 6000 would be fine. also iin the near future 4:10 gears with ta girdle
oh yeh, your car sounds great.

jeez you should have mentioned the ported heads and non stock bottom end sooner
I'm no engine building professional but I think you should go with the 224/230 on a 112. The 306 would be best shifted in the high 6k rpm range if you really want to maximize your use of the available HP so thats not the best chioce.

I didn't even read the replies, b/c I don't have time right now. But, I had the LT4 hotcam kit in my 95 Z for about 2 years. I switched over to the CC306 last Oct. and I LOVED it. I also put on some Stage II LT4 heads though.
That 306 rocks. But, I have to say, that you would be best off getting some head work, ect. That cam needs to breath. I got it up to 6800 last night, and it was still pulling like a wild b*tch. I had to let off though.
VERY good after about 60 mph. Alright on the low end, but I love the change. A lot of people were against the switch, but I did it anyway.
Tuning!!!! YOU will need that. That cam will cause BLM splits like crazy. My tuning for now is from Bryan at PCM4less
GOOD luck!
