Time to cam the radix 5.3, suggestions...
Im pretty sure I want to go with the LPE GT2-3, 207/220 .581/.587 118.5cl.
I live in Cali, so have to be careful about smog. I will not be upgrading to a higher stall, currently stalled at 2000 rpm.
It seems like the general consesus is that the radix likes higher exhaust duration and close to stock intake duration. Idling like stock is not a bad characteristic for a radix cam.
What about the GT7 cam, 208/230 .554/.556 121 cl ?
I know Vinci has more aggresive cams, but 03gmc has not had favoravle results with his cam and rocker arm package. Not to mention it is more expensive.
Any thoughts or opinions???

What cam did you end up going with?

I have a custom header pipe coming from oxidizer/Richard. 2.5" mandrel bent stainless steel piping with metallic cats flowing into an x, so I think my exhaust will flow well enough. Richard said that the set up will flow 500+ cfm per side, I think.

As far as my cam selection goes, I've not made that decision yet.
