Plenty of ZL1 owners have solved the heat soak You have to build for airflow and keep the boost at or below 12 psi.... boost is restriction. Boost is heat. If you speed up the supercharger for more capability you need to take the steps to get the numbers back down. The actual boost number means nothing more than how restricted the airflow is. The higher the number the more heat is introduced into the intake. The bigger issue lies in the oil temps

Fact is all Camaro's have high oil temp issues to be worked out at the track...... alll of them if you run in the heat.

Cams no problem if your prepared to have the valve springs checked every 25 000 miles . Most of the recent cam related failures have been from poor materials or improper installations. My cammed friends who have lost motors at the track have been tune related.

Op I think you will do well either way as there are pluses and minuses to both cars.
