Pacesetter Longtubes, 3" Off-road Y-pipe with a 3" cutout, eBay intake, ceramic intake elbow, air foil, plugs, wires, coil, PCMforless tune, fully built 4L60E with a vigilante 3000 stall, LS1 aluminum driveshaft.

I don't know, I realize the numbers aren't bad, but I was just expecting a little more, the HP is where I expected, maybe hoping for a little more torque. The converter locked up funny (thats why the spike is there), but the broad curve is what I'm proud of . Hoping to toss on some LE or AI heads with a matched intake manifold and a 75 shot and call it a night.

Re: LT4 HotCam Dyno Results

What were the SAE numbers?? These are uncorrected #'s and really can't be compared to anything. Also a graph with RPM is much more usefull than MPH.

Re: LT4 HotCam Dyno Results

Those are great numbers. I have been torn on the 224/230 XE vs the hotcam. I still think I am going XE. Did you by any chance have a dyno pull before you put in the cam? Thanks for sharing I am always searching the board for stuff like this and little is ever found.

I agree those are indeed excellent numbers, look at your torque man that equates to a helluva launch, quicker 0-60 which is great off the line, be proud man, it's just the start of the fun go out now

I'm working on getting a graph with RPM and a graph with more accurate A/F so Bryan at PCMforless can do some more fine tuning.

The SAE Corrected Numbers were 314/344 @ 65* F and 31% Humidity.

Re: LT4 HotCam Dyno Results

I have pretty much the exact same mods as u except I have a ram air hood with air box and a electric water pump. I just got a hotcam and am going to be putting it in this summer with some 4.10's. Im running a M6. Hope my numbers will be close to that if not better.

No dyno numbers before the cam -- only after. The biggest things I'd say you'd need are the full exhaust and intake, the cutout helps too. I didn't get a chance to dyno with the cutout closed.

jkucz31 - you're probably looking at the same numbers with the hot cam kit, maybe a little more. The setup you'll be running will be basically identical to mine.

97formulakid - as far as cost goes, you can't beat the dollar to power improvement with the hot cam kit.

Re: LT4 HotCam Dyno Results

You just gotta love that torque curve. I would say that you are about
on the mark for the A4. You will probably gain another 5-8 rwhp with
a dyno tune.

Good eye... though its more like 335rwtq...each increment is 10. I love it when they use spikes as peak #'s. I have seen dyn opeators do this many times
