Hotcam Dyno Numbers
Lookin' good Steve.
Toss on some 1.6 RRs and get it tuned on a dynojet. By the way it looks it might come close to some of those 'other' cams out there...
Take it to a track and see what type of mph it pulls off

i did the same thing when i had a hot cam... ran the stock rockers etc. when i went to 1.6's it made no diff. just so you know my experience don't expect alot from rockers
great numbers though, i would put some guide plates on there. the stock rockers come off easily...trust me on that

Here's my Hotcam dyno. This is on stock tuning through stock exhaust manifolds. I'm confident that with a good set of headers & tuning it wouldn't be tough to pass the 340 mark at the wheels.

Oh yeah, my last dyno before the cam was 296/323. The image above is for the cam only, rockers were already on the car.

I actually purchased a set of low milage lifters out of a LS1 car. I believe they had 20k on them and ran me $40 shipped. I figured I'd run a lesser chance of collapsing a lifter if I used something newer than my 109k LT1 lifters.

No, I didnt get a chance to make a quartermile pass. I had thought about it before I showed up but it slipped my mind once I got there. Next time I go by the shop I'll be sure to get on the dyno again and give it a try.
I've been meaning to get over to F-body Central and check them out.
I've been using them for a few years now...Good people, prices, and a great in house tuner...Very knowledgable and a riot to be around...They're the reason I run what I run...
Good numbers SteveO...Did you make a 1/4 pass on the dyno? Thats a lot of fun!!!

Yea it is best to do it right and forget about it. That is what I will do then, get new/used lifters. Thanks
Nice numbers. I loved the times and numbers I got out of my hotcam, I couldnt have been happier with it. My only regret was with not upgrading the springs that came with the kit. I ruined two lifters and the cam when I overrevved it one too many times
I'm just getting around to getting it back together and what cam did I go with......the hotcam
I'm now using the crane 10308 spring kit with it this time, they seem like some pretty strong springs. I thought about going to a bigger cam but I'm sticking with the stock heads for now (2 kids, money is tight) so I figured why mess with a good thing. I'm doing a little clean up on the heads while its apart, can't wait to see what it will do next
