Here's the graph of it on a 98 T/A
Why would you want such a small cam for a 6 liter? With the bigger motor and the gearing in your transmission I would definitely go bigger.

Your statement completely contradicts itself. I'd like to see the dyno sheet from your car.

I don't really want anything too extreme. I just want something that hits slightly and that I won't have to worry about possible driveability issues. Besides 80whp gain or so from cam/tune+LT's+FAST LSX manifold = 500whp GTO N/A, which is enough for me. It's going to be hard to make sure I get all of that power to the ground without breaking something. So I'll need to start upgrading that as well soon.

You won't hit 500rwhp with a TR224 but it is a great street cam and you can't beat it's low-midrange torque.
