Best part of the cam install was the off-idle power....'holy ****'
is the best way to describe my reaction. I am very happy with it.

Alternatively, there is a GM part number (12574519) with almost the same specs, and costing around $250: 204/211, .520/.520, 116

Would this cam be good for my 5.3L? Where can i get a cam motion cam? Also the alternative GM cam, would that be a good stealthy cam that will make decent power?

Ok guys I went with Kim Allens' Cam Motion Camshaft. Now comes the hard part...putting it in. Anyone know of someone trying to get rid of a set of LS6 or 918 springs?

Damn, I should have checked this yesterday, I have something I think you would have liked. I had the 206/212 on a 112lsa with +4*. Anyway, I think a tb stall would really help it. my times went down with the cam a little, but my MPH went up a good bit. Anyone else looking for a similar performance cam pm me.
