Only with the gears, I'd go with the larger cams because its a DD. If not getting the gears right now, get the smaller like TSP. You could get the 229 236 from TSP too; less agressive and torque earlier. From what I've read, tuner makes all the difference for drivability but you know that already.
I am impressed too by all the big cam getting the big rwhp numbers we want, but I'm not impressed by how they run at the track. They NEED that 4:10 to shine IMO.
I'm kinda confused since I've read that the G8 record holder is running a tiny cam..Rick Crawford Racing custom Lunati 219/223 .625/.625 112+0(just did a quick search, correct me if needed). Those G8 are heavy like our cars but its a 6.0l so I'd run something bigger for the 6.2l. Point is, early torque and great powerband moves those cars...not only top end.
ITs all about the whole setup; big cam, big gears. Stockish setup, go smaller and its better.
Theres a guy running in the low 11s@117mph IIRC with a baby cam on stock springs!! That makes you wonder why big cam cant run past 118mph...
And last thing, from all I've read about it, it seems that those cams really need that extra compression to shine..And tighter LSA is better for power but makes the drivability worst. So a smaller cam on a thight LSA, if I get it. Its very complicated and you can play with all the variables, but any knowledgeable guy here/sponsor can answer. Tick performance, TSP, GPI, Lethal, Florida speed...they can set you up better than me.
There is the agressiveness of the lobes to look at too for a DD. And I might be crazy, but I'd go with cam motion cores (they use higher grade steel than com cam) and even pay for an extra polish or whatever they call it.
