Question Which cam for an 02 LS1????

Hi guys, Im a new member, and was wondering if anyone had any opinions on a cam setup that people have had success with. Im not sure as to which manufacturer to go with, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Any cam specs would be helpful too. Also, how low of an LSA is safe to go with, while still maintaining good driveability? Thanks guys!

that's kindda vague...

what do you want to get out of the car? any ideas of hp?

is it auto or manual? how much daily driving? ported heads or stock? stock or taller gears?

i would think about whatyou want to do, watch and read the posts on here (tons on cam choices), then call up a place like Combination Motorsports and tell them what you think you want and listen to their reccomendations.

I hear the G5 cam by lgmotorsports is a good one. I hear you get like around 400 rwhp with stock heads but aftermarket headers.

Question

Thanks for the replies....Its a M6, w/ minor mods, like lid, borla catback, gutted cats, and 4.10 gears in the rear. Its a daily driver, but for very short miles. 10 at most. Im not too concerned about ride quality, as long as its not cutting out at every stoplight. Any more help would be great. Thanks Guys! I really appreciate it!
