Default GT11 camshaft

Anyone using a GT11 cam? 215/231 .631-.644 on a 118

Just want to know how well it idles, what the power band of the cam , any over lap and if it would work well with boost.

thank you

Cam would look like a cheater cam, one with a stockish idle but with decent N/A performance for daily driving. N/A-wise, it would have quite a bit more power than the stock cam. I'm actually thinking about getting a cam like that so I can sound stock until I mash down on the law breaker pedal and race an unsuspecting Porsche. But it looks like it would be just fine for boost as boost doesn't like cams with much overlap.

I tested that cam in an LS3 Crate engine. Very good average horsepower and torque. It had the best idle of all the cams we tested.

IMHO it would be a good street cam.

We've made good power with this cam, stock like idle

it makes same peak power as 228/228 cam, but is better under the curve.

wouldn't be my first choice for boost through.

Ill stick with another TR 214/230 .601-.575 117 blower cam for my LS2 Grand national Project.

I might get creative and do a custome grind 217/233 .600-.610 lift on a 118
Maybe Geff from Thunder can help me out
