theres nothing wrong with an ls6 cam, but its not going to net him much. From what Ive read from the 5.3 guys, the 224/224 is popular and around the 230's is big. The ls6 is 204/218.

I would guess that a 5.3 with the ls6 h/c should be around 340-350 hp with proper supporting mods and tune.

You said he got smacked by cars with 300 hp...a 50 hp difference is not that big taking into consideration other variables like weight and gear. This is also based off the assumption that his car is properly setup.
