Getting a new cam.

[Formulaboy95]

Yup. How do you like it??? How are the gains?

I haven't had it past about 1/2 throttle yet, and low end feels about the same (as expected). I've only put around 50 miles on it - still making sure everything is getting broken in slowly, and I need to get my tranny cooler on there.

Snow+salt+new mods = unhappy me.

I don't know what you mean... it's a lot better to make power higher up (within reason) than it is down low so that you can take advantage of the lower gears. When you're running a 1320, you're never below 3500 RPMs except for a brief couple seconds in first gear. Cam it as high as you can!

I totally agree with this statement.

I just got an email back from LG Motorsports... the G5X3 112 cam has shown 70 rwhp improvements on stock heads with full exhaust on 02 and later LS1s...

My shift points would move up to around 6800-7000, and I can keep the 3.42 gears...

What are the specs on that cam Jay? That is an outstanding gain on stock heads! I am hoping that with the new cam (224/224 .566/.566 112 LSA), ASP underdrive pulley, Hooker long tubes, removal of the cats, and computer tuning I will get close to 400 RWhp. Then with stage 2 heads maybe later this year see 420+ at the wheels. The cam I have is not a real big cam but a lot of the guys in my club here recommended it for the purpose I am using the car for now. I am sure I will want to go bigger but I have other driveline and suspension components to upgrade first (aka rear end, clutch, LCAs, and PHB).

The specs of the cam aren't published on LG Motorsports website, but it is also a 112 LSA cam... actually they make it in both 114 and 112 versions, I want the 112

I love the 112 LSA - I cannot wait to hear my car with this cam - the one guy in my club that is still running this cam has true duals and it sounds amazing. The lope is absolutely awesome! Mine should sound a bit more aggressive/lopey but will have the dreaded rasp! The guy ran a 12.08 at 116 with this cam - 2000 Formula WS6 with the same mods I will have and drag radials.
