What cam to get??? I am building a LQ9 6.0 motor bored and stroked to a 408. It has the 243 heads with a ls6 intake on top. This is going into a 2000 camaro that is a street/ strip car. I am looking for a cam for the motor. it is going to be mostly a drag car so i want a pretty big cam for it.
Anyone know what is the biggest cam lift that can fit in a 6.0 motor?
Also who makes a cam or wher could i get a cam that will fit good with this combination?
Also what do you guys think this combination will run in a non gutted out camaro?
Thanks

Which pistons are you going to run? The LQ9 is flat top and will limit your "big" cam choices. Youll either have to swap pistons, fly cut the stock slugs, or just stay limited to what PTV clearance you can get away with. Id deal with that issue before throwing a cam in there and starting it the first time and smashing the valves man.
