Default Re: Cam Questions

I'm a huge fan of the LT1 cam. While it wont have the thundering idle it sounds like you care looking for, it pulls hard all through the RPM range and will run your power brakes.

Ken has a good point about bleeding off some cylinder pressure for pump gas. It just comes at the expense of low end torque.

11:1 and the LT1 cam.............you will be mixing in some race gas in order to keep the timing where it should be.
