LT4 Hot Cam Kit What Should I Expect??
Hi guys I am getting ready to install the LT4 Hot Cam Kit and I wanted to see what horsepower numbers I should be expecting to gain? I have C.A.I. and L.T.'s on it presently.. Thanks for the help

I am assuming this is going into an LT1. I have the Hotcam w/ mid tubes. Check my sig for numbers. People have gotten anywhere from the low 300's all the way up to 340+. Just make sure you have your basic maintenance taken care of, and you have all the supporting mods and you should be able to get great numbers.

I think at full bolt ons (CAI/LT's/TuneUp/Catback/PCM Tune/ RR's) most people put down 300rwhp through an M6. I'd assume w/ the cam and 1.6 rr's you should pickup around 30-40rwhp. So I can see 355 if you have an e-waterpump or something else.

the 355/360 numbers are rare. His setup is a good "combo" which means that his results are not typical.
So yes you can hit 350/350 but its not easy. And for every one hitting those numbers there are 10 who arent.
I would expect 325rwhp with full exhaust, 1.6rr's and a hotcam kit.
A ewp, 52mm tb, crank pulley, cutout, etc are needed to hit 350rwhp
