212/218 low lift cam, 100 shot, and 4.10's should get you very close, read here: http://www.vetteweb.com/tech/vemp_06...ine/index.html LS6 springs and new rockers may be good for a few HP as well (while yer in there).
I like the clutch recommendations also. By the way, I'd like to learn more about built manual transmissions...alot of what I see here is autos, stalls, and servos blah blah.
Billy, iirc you're running 4.56's...what size tires and rims?

big cam + spray + t-56 with 4.88's is what I'm doing first

DSM, if I understand it correctly, anything over .550 lift on stock heads is counterproductive.

If anybody knows of any, I'm looking for a stepside bed for my truck. Like my RST but I always have the need to be different and would love to keep some of the RST stuff I like, and change what I don't so much. Always wanted a stepside. Was going to shorten my spoiler and put it on the stepside and section the roll pan to make a rst stepside but most likely will sell that stuff? Got to find a bed first though!

I am not knowledgeable enough on the topic to say that is correct or not, but it does make sense. I want to mill my heads a little bit, or maybe even buy some spare heads to work over, and add a bunch of spray to utilize the cam I go with. Eventually it will end up in a more built 6.0

4.8's eat boost and ask for seconds...I wonder how well they respond to n02.
Stroked, check out Comp CamQuest6 and screw around with it...may give you some good ideas for cams, I know I have learned alot from it.
