i need some cam suggestions for an engine build.

i'm putting lt's, true duals, fast 90/90 intake tb, ls6 heads (not ported but upgraded springs etc.), 3.73 gears and want some suggestions on brand and size for a cam. I plan to computer tune and change the stall but, I don't want to have to run a stall over 2500 rpms because it'll be a daily driver.

Could you tell me what i need and what i should expect to get with this set up rwhp. If you don't know who can i contact?

 

400-430rwhp depending on the cam you finalize. some people like the futural brand cams (kraest pushes that hard) i have a tsp custom cam and happy with it. a decent stall with that setup should put you in the mid 11's with dr's

 

With stock heads I would look for something in the 224/228 LSA 114 with a lift of .580/.580. Of course cam selection depends on your type of driving and goals. Peak hp numbers don't mean much, it's much more valuable have a high average hp under the curve.

 

Thats too small for a STOCK LS1, much less a camed one.

 

Ditto, think 3500 and don't worry about daily driving one. With the new converters high efficiency and lock up features it's not a problem at all.

 

what are the stock tc's rated at? im still running stock

 

If I had to guess, I'd say somewhere around 1500 or so.

I'm running a 2400 stall, although it's a little bigger with a blower. I really need a 3600 and this bitch would be in the 10s easy. It wastes too much time getting into boost from a dead stop.

I'd say to get a Futral Motorsports F11 or F13. Both have been successful in making over 400 rwhp with all supporting mods. The F11 is a little smaller, so you won't need much of a stall, however, just as everyone else already said...... a STOCK LS1 really needs a 3500+ stall since it makes peak torque around 4000 rpm.

Will the stall affect you after you are already moving(hurt midrange)?

 

No, it helps everywhere.

 

What brand cam do you guys suggest?

 

you didn't indicate a hp goal??
