Default Edelbrock LS1 Cam PN 2216, 230/237 .540/.540 110, anyone?

LS1 (1996-02) 2216* 314° 322° 230° 237° .318 .318 .540 .540 9° BTDC 41° ABDC 52° BBDC 5° ATDC 110° 106° – –

Advertised shows 314/322. If that's @ .006 (I'm not sure), that would make for some very slow ramp rates, wouldn't it??? Does that even make sense?

Anyhow, I came across this thing while looking at the Edelbrock site (I didn't even know they had ls1 cams) and was wondering if anyone has any feedback regarding it.

I don't have any experience with them but one thing i've always noticed is how they skimp out on the lift...maybe use a 1.8 rocker with them? You would still only end up with .571 though.

very slow ramp rates. should be easy on springs though. prob good for sustained high RPM like road racing. never used anything like that in LS1 though.

I've compared slower ramp rates before on some Lunati grinds (50's, 60's difference between .050 and .006), but 80's?
What do GMPP (Hotcam, ASA, Cup) lobes check in at?

And yes, looks like a good RR cam.

Lunati has a 230/237 .544/.543 112 with 298/286 advertised (making the exhaust an XE-R type lobe).

Yes, I would think some vinci/crane 1.8s would work nicely.
