I'm running a cam close to that 226 226 585 585 112 with a 2500 stall and pulling 1.7 60' times with the help of 4.10 gears. tuneing is going to be a must. The extra weight of your Z71 might need more stall.

Im Sorry Guys I Wrote The Wrong Lsa Down, This Cam That He Has Has A 114 Lsa, But Futral Does Have A F4 Cam With The Same Specs With A 112lsa, I Messed Up. Anyways So With The Same Specs As Above But With The 114lsa Wouls This Cam Be Ok With My 3.73's And 26oo Converter?

It will work, just saying personally I think you would be happier with a higher stall. I ran a decent cam with the factory converter in my 5.3. It just lost some of its ***** in the 60'. But my et still got better.
