Heads and Cam on LS1
I'm shopping for heads and a good cam for my 00 Camaro. I know pretty much what I want to do to the stock block as far as mods... I'm looking for it to be a good track car with the possibility of squeezing a 75-100 shot of Nitrous. I've been looking at Texas Speed & Performance's Magic Stick 4 Cam and AFR Head combo but I've heard that this isn't the best cam for nitrous because of the huge overlap... here are the specs:
Magic Stick V.4 239/242, .649"/.609" Camshaft With Your Choice of Lobe Seperation (111 LSA Standard)
here's what I have:
Ls1
6 speed
Centerforce clutch
planning to put in 4:11 posi, FAST LSx Intake and Throttle Body, SLP lid, and full SLP exhaust including long tube headers
What would any of you recommend for my app?

NBM / Silver- 00 SS / 71 SS Elcamino
First off do not buy slp headers or exhaust. They suck and set way too low. Pacesetters are much better and fit extremely well with no ground clearnce issues. I would also get a magnaflow or Borla cat back or a true duel set up before I bought anything from slp. Their stuff is outdated, expensive and has horible fitment issues.
Also I would skip the gear swap and go strait to a 9" ford rearend, With all the horse power you will produce, your 10 bolt will fall apart in 1.5 seconds the first time you run it at the track with stickies on.2000 SS Camaro Heads, Large cam, Fast 90, 9"w/430's and locker, yada yada yada... you get the picture

well I was talking to a friend who has a smaller cam than the ms4 and then I have a friend who has the ms4 and they both run nitrous... forgot what shot... but the friend with the smaller cam ran 12.0 and the other ran 12.6 in the 1/4.... i am aware that there are other variables contributing to this as well....
