95 or 96 LT1 Cam???
Which is overall the best cam? A 1995 stock LT1 or 1996 stock LT1 cam? I am upgrading from a stock 5.7L tbi cam.
I am installing Comp Cams 1418-16 roller rockers (1.6) with RHS heads with 2.02/1.60 valves 76cc chamber. 50mm ported edelbrock performer tbi intake with a 7.4L tbi base and cop car injectors (4327). 255pph fuel pump and afpr.
Need to know what the best cam is of the two that I have. I have looked at the following info on the LT1 cam threads, but not sure what to do. Help? Please? I have spent a few hours reading and now it's time to ask for help.
Thanks so much guys!!!

Re: 95 or 95 TA Cam???
Unfortunately, there is no part number on either cam. Only numbers stamped are the following:
1995 TA Cam GMPT BC 13 241
1996 TA Cam GMPT BC 15 705
1995 TA Cam GMPT BC 13 241
1996 TA Cam GMPT BC 15 705

Re: 95 or 95 TA Cam???
Seems that I find 4 different "spec" charts for 94-96 LT1 cams. They "supposedly" were all the same. Who's right? LOL!!!
HELP!!!
Simple, I just want to know if the specs are the same between the 95 and 9 LT1 cams and if anyone "really" knows what they are.

93-95 LT1 202/207 @ 0.050" .450"/.460" Lift, LSA 116
96 LT1 200/207 @ 0.050" .447"/.459" LSA 117
You would be slightly better off with the 95 cam, For what you are doing I would go bigger than either of those.

Re: 95 or 95 TA Cam???
What would you recommend?
----------
I know that either of the LT1 cams are a lot better than my stock 350 TBI cam. I want something easily tuneable, but something to match my intake, fuel system and heads.
Comp Cams??? Which one?

Re: 95 or 95 TA Cam???
Well, I bit the bullet, lol!!! Just purchased a Comp Cams 8-304-8. The cam, heads and other mods should bring a strong 350hp!!! YES!!! 
The 1.6 rockers should bring my lift close to .544
Will let you know when it's done.
Thanks everyone for your help!

Re: 95 or 95 TA Cam???
I believe stock 193 heads can handle .480 MAX lift. It is safe to go with .475
That is my understanding.
