Re: Fastest Cam Only LT1?

Chris my car just has the normal weight reduction mods nothing special. I once posted that I thought my car weighed 2990 and I weighed 210 or so with my helmet jacket etc. But when i weighted the car the other day it weighed 3327 so my car must weigh 3117 during regular bracket races. Now I can run get the car down to about 3050 for sure to try and run fast. Thats with the lightweight seat,low fuel and light battery. Frank95z

Re: Fastest Cam Only LT1?

I guess I do not know what the standard weight reductions are. Could you elaborate or tell me where to find that information.

Although you may not tell me all your tricks as I am gunnin for your record!
Thanks Frank.

Re: Fastest Cam Only LT1?

i have his cam 210/224 112LSA .508-.555 w/ 1.6 ratio roller rockers!! and ill say i am very please with this cam...im running avery small TC right now and i dont even belive its a 2600 maybe smaller, but il be getting a 2800 maybe 3000 but most likely 2800 and then ill will soon get to the track and let you know...full weight minus rear tire and spare jack, and i weigh about 140lbs!!

so ill post up sooner or later, but im also on street tires right now!!
i have beaten a modded LS1 that ran a 13.1 b4 his LT install and raced him after his LT install and put about 3-4 car lengths on him and very slowly pulled!!

Re: Fastest Cam Only LT1?

Yeah I think Frank is the man to beat... There are several others including myself in the 11's with cam only. But Frank has us all beat. But he will have his hands full by the end of this year...

Frank has the car set up just right for his combo and it is making great power. The weight helps

My car has been consistant 11.9's before the I added the bar. The weight back then was 3650 w/me in it. I'm sure its heavier now even with some weight reduction.

Re: Fastest Cam Only LT1?

Sorry if I sounded rude. I've seen a couple of graphs on Crane 210/224 cam with stockheads like mine. They made peak torque at 4200 (thats why I use the Vig3200 that flashes to 3800) also my car made good hp to 6200 then fell off. Hope this helps . Frank95z
