Default Change of plans

Well, since my pops won't allow me to get a 6.0 liter even though I have plenty of money, I've decided to go a different route. I guess I'll just have to deal with my 4.8 and turn it into a freak Ain't nothin wrong with that. Modding a 4.8 is like taking the long way out...if you're successful (fast) you deserve a helluva lot of respect...so that's one upside I like to remind myself of lol

For Feburary I plan on getting a Yank TT3000 and a 212/218 .522 /.529 114 LSA comp cam with some sort of tune. Would any of you cam experts reccomend a different cam? I was considering a Z06 cam but really want the sound and the high end rip of a bigger cam in the 4.8, if I'm going to go through doing the cam swap. I plan to spin it to 6500 or higher if safe. What springs should I throw in with the cam, and will the hardened 7.400" pushrods work with this cam? I hope that these mods will get me to about low or mid 14's. Then I'll go from there... Thanks for any help bros.
