I was living in Fayetteville, NC before I moved here in July. I'm not too thrilled about the laws, roads, tolls, taxes, weather, etc. up here so I'm not going to be staying long.

Last saturday I saw a black 91/92 Z28 drive by while I was at work, and it is the only 91/92 Z I've ever seen on the roads. It would be cool to find others, but this is SUV land, unless you are a biker. R1ce is also very bad down here in the valley.

There is at least one other guy on this board from Albany, he replied to my "Interior Clips" thread. He said he was able to get them from a dealer, but never told me which one since I have tried many. The only other nice thirdgen I saw here was in Middletown, it was a freshly painted blue IROC with white Z28/heritage stripes.

Yeah, the heads you got will definately be the bottleneck. I'm not trying to say a cam swap would make a huge power gain, but having one that is matched to the HSR intake will produce better results than what you got now. And if you are considering a re-tune you might as well consider if the cam you have now is really the cam you want to keep until (or if) you decide to tear into the motor again (which will require another re-tune). If you do some searching there are other people with similar setups as far as the heads and intake, and alot of different experiences with different cams. I believe max lift on these heads is around .479, maybe the ZZ4's are different not sure. Alot of people have gone with the LT4 Hotcam and 1.5 RR's, and some have gone with aftermarket brands with similar specs to the Hotcam but more fine tuned. The aftermarket stuff is usually considered better (the Hotcam is the "budget" route). I'm still researching what cam I want to use for my setup (which is very similar) so can't really make any recommendations as far as specs. I'm still working on the heads. 350rwhp is a pretty high goal for this combo.
I read some posts on Sallee-Chevrolet's website and a lot of guys there are using the Comp Cams 230/244 cam. Also they have ZZ4s with just the hotcam kit making 400hp at the flywheel.
