cc503 > hotcam

 

With those mods you should be well into the 13's. My thoughts on a cam swap is if youre going through the trouble to do it get something worth while, unless youre on a tight budget. At least thats what im doing.

 

what the heck is a cc503?

an Lt1 car should run 13's stock...

 

its a comp grind, an old but good grind. Its what alot would consider a baby cam but people make good power with it.

 

what would be a good cam?

 

CC503

 

what kind of power range would that cc503 be giving .... what about the cc306?

 

Too many factors to consider, but the cc306 is quite a bit bigger IIRC.

 

I put this cam in my LT1 last fall with all the supportng bolt ons. I had read more than a few times that 350 rwhp is what you can expect on stock heads. I did a whole new valvetrain along with the cam. Unfortunately I sold the car after getting the motor rebuilt so I never had it dynoed.

 

I think you would need at least some kind of ported heads to reach 350rwhp, but I may be wrong.

 

Yeah....I thought that was a pretty optimistic number. Wish I had the chance to put it on a dyno. The guy who bought the car was a member on this site, but I can't remember his user name to find out if he still has it or what he's done with it.

 

350rwhp isn't too much to expect out of a cc503 stock head car

I made 326rwhp with my stalled auto with midlengths and 140k mile motor

I could imagine a t56 car with lt's and less miles cracking 350rwhp would be a cince
