how is the power diff between that and the 216/220? and idle

so are you still planning on turning that thing in to a stroked beast or taking it easy for a while now???

gotta bombard you with questions obviously <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

We'll need to get some fine tuning done to the ECM to gain all of what the camshaft gained. It needs about 400 rpm more in the shiftpoints to about 6400-6500rpm. It still idles fine, but its noticably more choppy than the other camshaft - idle is set to 950, if it was lower it would probably be a lot more noticable. Seems to lost a little on the bottom end according to Jason, didn't feel too different to me though <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
I don't think there are any other major plans for the 6.0L right now, too many other projects going on. Got to eventually work on his C5 a little, its the slowest car in the shop right now, lol <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

what about those couple of people who are going with the reverse split duration cams in the ls1s but are N/A... they say with xe-r lobes make same low end power but more top end all with a better idle than single pattern with close to the same duration.

would this work on the trucks as well? or is this something that only works good in certain instances <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

The thing I worry about is the keeping the cam pretty small with the smaller motors. I think the 6.0L is big enough that we can just give up some low end power for ponies up top. Its still not as fast as a m6 LS1 car I dont think, some guy spanked me a few cars last night, but he had some mods <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> At the end of the race I told him good race you have a fast car & he replied yeah I know! I was thinking, biotch I have a TNT kit sitting at my house dont make me use it!
