    After spending a bunch of money on my Camaro, I've come to realize that the most worthwhile mods to me tend to be the ones that affect the "felt" response after driver input. So, I'd be focusing on brakes, chassis and suspension first. As for power, I might do a full exhaust as a simple bolt on.

    Other than that, I'd go with slotted rotors, Hawk pads, stainless brake lines, sway bars and shocks.

    Forgot valve springs, necessary. Also I have to have a clutch/slave setup. one of them is going bad... 100k miles on the car so yea. MS4 cam seems like a better option, Similar to the polluter but no ptv issues

    MS4 is based on 15 yr ago, it has a steep rise and fall that is harsh on the valve springs. Many that have used it have said they have to check the valve springs every 25k miles.

    The Polluter cam is perfect for a LS2 with stock or aftermarket heads.

    I have it in my 403 stroker, with 6.125" rods and flat top pistons w/3cc relief cuts and have no PTV issues.

    The LS2 uses the same length but with a 3.622 stroke crank so there shouldn't be any PTV with stock heads.

    You should always check push rod length when you do cam and heads.
