Lingenfelter GT2-3 LS1 Camshaft and Valve Spring Kit

Does anyone know anything about this cam?
Is it a good Turbo and Boost cam?
Is this the optimum cam I'll want when I'm all said and done with my Turbo?
I'm looking for the perfect cam for me. Ultimately since I'm ending up with Turbo is this going to be a good boost cam later on?
How will this cam do if I install it now in my stock heads?
Is it the right Turbo/Boost cam for me as my final cam?

I don't have the money to order the heads yet because I'm in the process of getting a 12bolt.
Here is the thing. I'm building my car in stages. Lil by lil to eventually end up with a Turbo Daily Driver. I figure by the time I finish my car HP performance will have their Turbo kit all done and ready to go.

Well anyway. I was thinkin about waiting on the heads and ordering the cam for now and just doing the valvetrain, lifters, etc etc when I order my AFR 225 cc heads with 76 cc chambers later on.

I already have an LS6 valvetrain, titanium retainers, etc etc Couldn't I buy just the cam and install just the cam for now and wait to do rockers, lifters, and valvetrain when I get AFR heads later on?

You should not hesitate to call Ed at LPE and ask him any and all questions about this topics.

The cam looks like a good turbo cam to me and I can't help but mention the 118.5 lsa, which is very high but no atypical for LPE's cams. They retain a lot of cylinder pressure.

What does that mean? 118.5 LSA mean and is retainig cylinder pressure a good thing? I have a LS6 GEN3 Hotcam so I think my LSA is 112 which is bad for boost cars right? Well either way it'll be atleast a year till I get the turbo.

How do I get Ed's #?

What does what mean?

LPE is a site sponsor and their number can be found at their site via the link at the right side of this page.

D3IMOS

OK. Thanks. I'll look it up under the sponsors..

Race Car Driver

Yes, 112 lsa is not preferred for cars with boost or nos.

D3IMOS

I gathered that but I don't know what LSA is what it does. and why the lower num is bad for boost. LOL. I don't know much when it comes to cams.
