What about the high lift 212/218 which is .558/.563 would that work with ls6 springs? On comp's site it list the high lift as the ls6 street replacement cam. Still haven't decided on the high or low lift.

Low shows a 1200-6000 rpm range and high shows a 1400-6700 range. The low range is more of what I am looking for but then this is for a 6.0 w/4l80e in a rcrb not a 5.7 or 5.3 for that.

LS6 springs (p/n 12499224) are good up to .570 lift according to summit.com

I heard the lunati cam was bad *** as well.

VRX3 DD. Makes great power and moves my pig in a hurry. Good for mid 12's with my setup now.

Anybody else? I think I have pretty well decided on the high lift 212/218 w/ ls6 springs to go in my 6.0 with 4l80e.

On a side note would my stock cam help my buddy's 4.8 and he wouldn't have to change anything except a tune?

I have a 222/226 with 6.0 and stock converter lq4. Had yank 3600 before removing it. Good cam for DD, but dies off fast up top.

What about a custom 212/218 high lift, one with a 114+4. That should give me a little more lope and the built in advance should bring the power on a few hundred rpm sooner. As a comparison the low lift is a 114+2.
