Uh, doubt it. On a stock 4.8L with an auto and the stock TC, the highest I'd go would be maybe 212/218. Even then, you might have some RPM climbing to do before you hit power.

The cam in my sig would be ideal for smaller cubes (4.8L - 5.3L) and stock stall....which is why I got it.

I put in a trailblazer stall with almost the same cam. Mine has 114 lsa. Seems to work pretty good.
