You can do a cam only with the 04, but if you at least upgrade to stock casting 243 (LS2/LS6) heads, you'll really wake up that LS1. The MS3 is pretty big for a small cube LS1. If you are looking at the Texas Speed cams, you might really check out the Torquer V2 instead.

Don't have to upgrade the heads, but you can make some good gains replacing the 241s. Since you don't have to pull the heads to install the cam, you could do the cam now and decide on heads later.
ok well im prolly going to get a cam and not heads yet..i just dontknow what type of cam to get..i heard good thing bout msc but then i heard it too big of a cam for that block without getting heads...but i was at the track and TA had it on his ls1 wihtout heads..

GTO is a heavy car, so trq is one aspect you should look at instead of peak numbers.
230/230 .612/.592 111+2 LSA
is what I recommend. It acts bigger than it is, is a reverse split at .200 lifts so big trq output, rvs till 6600 with a powercurve that is almost linear.
Go with that one I listed above, it works with stock heads and it would be a great cam from this car....it is a grind from comp cams, you just have to give them the specs.

I would go with the 228R if i were you but its all up to you on what you want, The 228R is known to make more power than a lot of the larger cams, The TQ on my car is a monster, at 2500rpm im already making 358RWTQ

and where can i get one of these ms3 cams or should i go with the ms4??? wats the difference..and how much will they run me
The MS3 (Magic Stick V.3) is sold by Texas Speed. The main difference with the V.4 is the intake lift is a lot higher on the V.4 which puts more stress on the valve springs. The MS3 is a fairly large cam for the LS1 with stock heads. I personally think you'd be happier with the Torquer V.2 or like Breze84 says, the 228R. I also highly recommend their cam package 2 located towards the bottom of the webpage (see link). The kit comes complete with cam, valve springs, and hardened pushrods.

True those cams do make good power but my friend with a 228r is stepping it up and I hear of lots of people that wish they would have just gotten a bigger cam after they already put there smaller one in!
I will be running the MS3 with stock heads in my DAILY DRIVER until I get the prc stage 2.5 LS6's, I bought the cam package from tsp like batboy is talking about.
With the stock heads you will get the 7.4 pushrods.

The 228R is not a small cam by any means.... 228/228 .588 .588 112 / 114lsa, That a decent size cam.....
yeah it is a good size cam but when you're comparing it to a ms3 ms4 torquer 3 t-rex vrx6 and some others its kinda small
